Nyer Zet-Ractor-Innovative Multifunctional Concept of Retraction
Journal Title: Journal of Dentistry and Oral Sciences - Year 2019, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
Post-operative pain and swelling is one of the common complications following mandibular third molar surgery leading to very disturbing days immediately following third molar extraction. On considering the impact of such post-operative sequelae on the patient's quality of life, it is necessary to exercise preventive measures to minimize the occurrence of such complications / untoward events. Although many retractors are already in application for retraction of tissues during the third molar extraction, this manuscript describes an innovative multifunctional concept "Nyer Zet-ractor" designed for retraction and isolation without limiting the accessibility to the surgical area in mandibular third molar surgery. The "Nyer Zet-ractor"described in this manuscript is an innovative device which provides the advantages like clear access, continuous visibility and excellent isolation of the surgical site unlike conventional retractors with minimal retractive forces thereby reducing post-operative pain and swelling. Nyer Zet-ractor implements a multifunctional concept of retraction making it an efficient, easy to use, and exerts a known and finite amount of force, thereby avoiding tissue damage.
