Although needle breakage is a rare event in dentistry, the occurrence can cause significant distress to the patient and the clinician. Taking appropriate measures to prevent this mishap is best. However, when this event occurs, appropriate planning and retrieval of the needle can lessen the detrimental effects. In this report, we document the migration and retrieval of a broken dental needle that traveled from the medial ramus of the mandible to the posterior cervical space. This report emphasizes the importance of proper local anesthesia techniques, as well as preventive measures, localization methods, and the principles of surgical approaches for the removal of broken needles.
尽管断针在牙科中是罕见事件,但这种情况会给患者和临床医生带来极大困扰。采取适当措施预防这种意外情况是最好的。然而,当这种情况发生时,对断针进行适当的规划和取出可以减轻有害影响。在本报告中,我们记录了一根折断的牙科针从下颌骨内侧支迁移至颈后间隙并被取出的过程。本报告强调了正确局部麻醉技术的重要性,以及预防措施、定位方法和取出断针手术方法的原则。
