Abstract
- This first of two articles describes a modified distolingual splitting technique for removal of impaction of various classes. The second article evaluates the efficacy of the technique by reporting and comparing the incidence of postoperative sequelae with earlier research findings.

The procedure is best performed with the patient under sedation or general anesthesia.
