Abstract
The inferior dental nerve is closely related to the apex of the third molar, and at times to the second molar; therefore, during their extraction it is possible that there is pressure on the duct through which the nerve runs. Hence, trauma is the most frequent cause in the presentation of paresthesia, with direct correlation existing between the prognosis and the importance of the trauma caused to the nerve. We discovered a clinical case with the inferior dental nerve directly related to the roots of a second molar.
