PURPOSE: Mandibular wisdom teeth can occasionally cause infections, which can progress to severe deep neck infections (DNIs) including deep neck abscesses or necrotizing soft tissue infections, which are fatal. This study aimed to identify the radiographic characteristics of mandibular wisdom teeth that developed severe DNIs.
METHODS: This study included patients who were admitted for the treatment of severe mandibular wisdom tooth infection between July 2012 and June 2024 at a single center. Patient characteristics, clinical data, and radiographic findings were analyzed and compared between the severe DNI group and mild DNI group including patients with cellulitis or superficial abscess. P < 0.05 was considered significant.
RESULTS: Nineteen of 42 patients (45.2%) were included in the severe DNI group. The multivariate analysis showed that the highest odds ratio (OR) was for the presence of a radicular cyst (OR=17.7), followed by the presence of a dentigerous cyst (OR =14.5). The most common mandibular wisdom tooth with a dentigerous cyst in patients with severe DNIs was inverted according to Winter's classification and type IIIC in the Pell and Gregory classification.
CONCLUSION: Radiographic characteristics associated with severe DNIs included the presence of radicular and dentigerous cysts in the mandibular wisdom teeth. Especially in dentigerous cysts, deeply impacted teeth should be taken attention.
