pubmed:abstractText |
The use of high-speed air-cooled rotary cutting instruments is common in dental practices. When used near open wounds, the forced air can lead to subcutaneous emphysema and involvement of vital structures. This case highlights the unfortunate episode of orbital emphysema with optic nerve damage after a pneumatically cooled drill was used in the removal of a mandibular second molar.
