Tooth extraction is one of the most common dental surgical procedures. Its success depends on the operator’s knowledge, skills and experience. Proper choice of tools is also important. Incorrect tooth extraction using excessive force may cause local complications, such as damage to the soft tissue or to the extracted or neighbouring tooth with potential translocation, bone fracture, formation of an oral sinus communication or even mandibular dislocation. Currently, efforts are being made to develop methods that will allow for the preservation of intact surrounding periodontal tissues to facilitate subsequent prosthetic rehabilitation. Surgical tools used in atraumatic tooth extraction include, among other things, Physics Forceps, periotomes, luxators, and the Benex extractor system. These tools reduce the risk of damage to the vestibular lamina of the alveolar bone, allow for avoiding the need for a mucoperiosteal flap and reduce the incidence of postoperative pain. This helps create optimal conditions for subsequent implant prosthetic reconstruction. The paper presents the characteristics and application of selected tools used in atraumatic tooth extraction.
