Abstract
We have analysed 93 patients with mandibular angle fractures, with special re-ference to the treatment of wisdom teeth in the fracture line, during the past 6 years (1985-1990) at the Department of Oral Surgery, Ryukyu University Hospital.The results were as follows:1) Among 97 fracture lines in 93 cases, there were 89 wisdom teeth (91. 8%) and 31 of these were extracted.2) Erupted teeth tended to be extracted, while premature teeth tended to be preserved.3) There were few differences in prognosis of fractures between preserved cases and ex-tracted cases. These results suggest that the treatment of wisdom teeth should be consideedon an individual basis.
