BackgroundInterest in atraumatic tooth extraction has increased because it aims to preserve the dental alveolus. Several tools have been designed for atraumatic extraction, including the recently invented physics forceps. This study aims to assess the physics forceps and compare the clinical outcomes to the conventional forceps.MethodologyA prospective, randomized, split-mouth, single-blind study was conducted among 20 healthy patients needing bilateral extraction. Participants were randomly assigned to perform physics forceps extraction on one quadrant and conventional forceps extraction on the opposite quadrant. Clinical outcomes were recorded and compared, including time taken for extraction, root fracture, buccal cortical plate fracture, postoperative pain, patient satisfaction, and post-extraction socket healing.ResultsThe mean extraction time of physics forceps was shorter than conventional forceps but without statistical significance. Root and buccal cortical plate fractures were lower in the physics forceps group. Statistical difference in postoperative pain was found on the third postoperative day as pain scored higher in the physics group (p = 0.038). Higher patient satisfaction was found in the physics forceps group (85%). Post-extraction socket healing was equal in 75% of the cases.ConclusionsPhysics forceps is a novel and efficient atraumatic dental extractor. It reduces intraoperative time, is associated with higher patient satisfaction, and has comparable clinical outcomes to conventional forceps.
