The type of this research method is a qualitative case study. “Emphysema Due to Tooth Extraction” is the main focused question of this minor thesis and its resource and references were limited with specific searches keywords including: Tooth extraction, emphysema, treatment and medication for emphysema on tooth extraction. Tooth extraction is a removal process of tooth from tooth socket, to stop pain from tooth decay, to remove fractured or malformed teeth, or for the purpose of denture installation, while emphysema is an abnormal pathologic distention of body tissue caused by retention of air. It is classified into pulmonary emphysema and emphysema outside of respiratory system such as subcutaneous emphysema.Among the studies case reports, one of them describes a 56 years old male patient who suffered from immediate subcutaneous emphysema can be treated with 8L O2/min for the first 12 hours and IV antibiotic or ampicilin with sulbactam, prophylaxis for potential oral pathogen. Once the swelling slowly recovers, the patient was then discharged with augmentin 875mg and oxycodone-acetaminophen. As the conclusion, subcutaneous emphysema is best treated with board spectrum antibiotics such as ampicillin, non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs which is given when subcutaneous emphysema is in the state of inflammation, analgesic, and certain treatment includes mouth-opening exercise and airway monitoring but its necessity is based on patient condition.Tooth ExtractionEmphysemaTreatment and Medication of Emphysema on Tooth Extraction.
