Practical Treatment for Swallowing foreign Objects, Dental Instruments

P(論文)We studied foreign objects swallowed accidentally during dental practice. There were 14 cases of accidental swallowing of foreign objects between 1990 and 1993 in our laboratory. The usual procedures include standard radiography and, if necessary tomography, RI scintigraphy, and computed tomography for the further investigation. It is clear that the judgement and evaluation of dentists and the cooperation of dental anesthesiologists are essential in the removalog foreign objects swallowed accidentally.departmental bulletin pape
