  PATIENT WAS HAVING REMOVAL OF HER WISDOM TEETH, WHICH REQUIRES REMOVAL OF BONE AND SECTIONING OF TEETH WITH A HIGH-SPEED ROTARY INSTRUMENT. WE USE A SURGICAL STRAIGHT HANDPIECE WITH A MOTOR THAT RUNS AT STANDARD 50,000 RPM (MFR: W&H ELCOMED). A 702 CARBIDE BUR WAS USED WITH COPIOUS NORMAL SALINE IRRIGATION. I ALWAYS USE MY FINGERS TO HOLD THE LIP / CHEEK OUT TO NOT ONLY GET MORE LIGHT INTO THE FIELD, BUT ALSO TO AVOID TRAUMA FROM THE BUR. A FEW MINS AFTER SECTIONING TOOTH #47, MY ASSISTANT NOTICED A DEEP (3RD DEGREE) BURN TO THE LEFT LIP COMMISSURE, EVIDENTLY AS A RESULT OF THE SHAFT OF THE HANDPIECE HAVING CONTACT WITH TISSUES WHILE IN USE.

I DID NOT FEEL ANY HEAT GENERATED BY THE HANDPIECE ITSELF, AND WE DIDN'T ACTUALLY EVEN SEE THE BURN UNTIL A MIN OR 2 LATER, ALMOST AS IF IT WAS A DELAYED REACTION TO WHATEVER HEAT OR VIBRATION WAS BEING GENERATED BY THE HANDPIECE. TO CLARITY IT WAS NOT THE BUR, BUT RATHER THE SHAFT OF THE HANDPIECE VS, MOTOR ITSELF. I COULDN'T TELL WHICH WAS RESPONSIBLE. THE BURN WAS FULL THICKNESS INTO MUSCLE. THOUGH THERE WAS NOT EVEN ANY BLEEDING FROM

  Patient problems: Full thickness (Third Degree) Burn
