Abstract
Background: The aim of this systematic review was to evaluate the clinical efficacy, benefits, and limitations of piezosurgery in tooth extractions compared to conventional methods. Piezosurgery has emerged as a minimally invasive alternative, promoting better preservation of soft tissues and bone structures. Understanding its impact on postoperative outcomes such as pain, swelling, trismus, and bone healing is critical for its application in oral surgery; Materials and Methods: We restricted our search to English-language articles published between 1 January 2004 and 28 August 2024, in PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science. The Boolean search keywords "piezosurgery AND tooth extraction" were used. Results: A total of 983 articles were identified, and after duplicates were removed, 766 studies were screened. Following the application of inclusion and exclusion criteria, seven articles were selected for qualitative analysis. Conclusions: The literature suggests that piezosurgery offers advantages, such as reduced postoperative pain, swelling, and trismus, despite longer surgical times compared to conventional methods. While piezosurgery shows promise for improved patient comfort and soft tissue preservation, further research is required to validate its long-term impact on bone healing and regeneration.
