Abstract |
The aim of this present study is to describe a case of a screwdriver implant aspiration removed with flexible bronchoscopy. This study reviewed the current literature and the authors also proposed an airway management algorithm in case of suspected foreign body aspiration during dental procedures. A review of English-language literature of aspiration of objects after clinical dental practice from 1984 to 2021 was performed. The bronchoscopy was the main method for dental items removal. A total of 57 cases from the literature were enrolled in this study. Aspiration of dental crown and prostheses (43.85%) followed by implant material (19.29%) and tooth (15.78%) were the main aspirated items. Prevention is the better way to avoid this type of complication. Early diagnosis facilitates the removal of foreign body and bronchoscopy is considered the treatment of choice for removal of foreign body aspiration. Also, regular professional training in basic life support is required.
