Abstract :
Introduction The soft tissue inflammation around the crown of partly erupted or partially erupting tooth is called as pericoronitis, predominantly in 91%–95% case pericoronitis is associated with erupting or partly erupted the lower third molars. Aim The main aim of this study was to evaluate the associated flora surrounding the impacted third molars and inflammed adjacent tonsils. Material and method Some of 160 patients were screened with age group 17–27 year were included. Sample collection was done prior to surgical removal of third molar and adjacent tonsils with sterile cotton swab. Samples were sent to microbial culture. Results The microbial culture analysis implicates that the age group 21–23 shows highest amount of impaction, also associated with pericoronitis, (17), sore throat (16). The prevalence both aerobic and anaerobic microbes similar age group has shown significant rise in microbial flora. Conclusion The incidences of impaction of third molars in age groups 21–23 have like to prone for infection of palatine tonsils.
