Abstrak

The removal of tuberosity post extraction of the maxillary third molar is a very rare complication and there has not been ample discussion in the literature. Forceful extraction of a maxillary third molar can lead to soft and hard tissue loss. Various techniques have been used for the management of such defects such as local flaps, free soft tissue flaps, free bone flaps, and even tissue engineering. We present a case report of a large post-traumatic defect of maxillary tuberosity caused by forceful extraction of the maxillary third molar, which was managed conservatively by secondary healing, and the patient is on regular follow-up.
