The Use of a Custom-made Mouthguard for Dental Protection during Laryngoscopy

在喉直達鏡手術中使用訂作之護牙套

摘要


因插管造成的牙齒損傷,文獻記載機率從1/1000到1/4500。但在使用喉直達鏡(direct laryngoscopy)或其他硬式內視鏡時,以上顎門牙為支點,也可能造成損傷。我們提出一名71歲男性患有早期喉癌(Tlb),為了避免喉蹼(laryngeal web),先後間隔兩星期進行兩次的經口雷射切除癌症手術(transoral laser surgery)。在第二次手術置入喉直達鏡時,意外發生兩側上顎門牙脫位(avulsion)。術後此病人立即接受了牙齒重置術(replantation)並固定。門診追蹤15個月後,發現病人右側聲帶有肉芽組織懷疑復發。進行第三次喉直達鏡術前,我們讓病人戴上定製的護牙口腔護套(custom-made mouthguard)保護牙齒。此次手術切片則未造成任何牙齒損傷。對於口腔衛生不佳有牙周病,鬆動上門牙或是須反覆接受喉直達鏡手術的高危險群病人,我們建議在術中使用定製的護牙口腔護套保護牙齒。

Trauma to the teeth is a significant complication associated with endotracheal intubation, Dental trauma may also occur during direct laryngoscopy by using the maxillary incisors as a fulcrum, We report a case of teeth fracture during the course of a second rigid laryngoscopy. We used a custom-made mouthguard to protect the teeth during the third laryngoscopy to avoid iatrogenic dental injury. For patients who are at high risk of dental injuries during rigid endoscopies, we recommend the use of custom-made mouthguards to minimize the risk of dental injuries.
