Abstract
In military dentistry pericoronitis is one of the most frequently seen conditions which are acutely painful. Not only is this condition limited in a large degree to the mandibular third molar region, but the involved third molars are usually in a vertical position and on the same occlusal level as the second molar. Control and prevention can be accomplished only with sound treatment plans that direct attention to those third molars which are potential sources of trouble. In other words, the military dentist must limit elective surgical procedures in order to conserve time and do the most good.
