Özet
Removal of an impacted maxillary third molar can be challenging for both dental clinicians and oral surgeons. Frequently encountered complications include infection, pain, swelling, root fractures, trismus, and haemorrhage. In addition, unexpected displacement of the maxillary third molar may be encountered during the extraction process. This case report presents a maxillary third molar displaced to the infratemporal fossa, as well as removal of the tooth following 1 month, along with the causative factors. The roles of orthopantomography and dental volumetric tomography scans in determining the localization of the tooth are discussed, together with different surgical options and risks for surgical removal of the tooth from the infratemporal fossa.
