What is Modified Lingual Split Technique about?
This article describes a modified technique for removing impacted mandibular third molars. The technique involves making vertical and horizontal osteotomies using an osteotome to fragment the bone rather than removing it entirely. This leaves the fragmented lingual bone attached to the periosteum. The soft tissue is not separated from the bone. The procedure fragments the bone into pieces, exposing the tooth for removal.
