<front><div type="abstract" xml:lang="en"><p>Implant surgery in mandibular anterior region may turn from an easy minor surgery into a complicated one for the surgeon, due to inadequate knowledge of the anatomy of the surgical area and/or ignorance toward the required surgical protocol. Hence, the purpose of this article is to present an overview on the: (a) Incidence of massive bleeding and its consequences after implant placement in mandibular anterior region. (b) Its etiology, the precautionary measures to be taken to avoid such an incidence in clinical practice and management of such a hemorrhage if at all happens. An inclusion criterion for selection of article was defined, and an electronic Medline search through different database using different keywords and manual search in journals and books was executed. Relevant articles were selected based upon inclusion criteria to form the valid protocols for implant surgery in the anterior mandible. Further, from the selected articles, 21 articles describing case reports were summarized separately in a table to alert the dental surgeons about the morbidity they could come across while operating in this region. If all the required adequate measures for diagnosis and treatment planning are taken and appropriate surgical protocol is followed, mandibular anterior region is no doubt a preferable area for implant placement.</p>

<abstract><p>Implant surgery in mandibular anterior region may turn from an easy minor surgery into a complicated one for the surgeon, due to inadequate knowledge of the anatomy of the surgical area and/or ignorance toward the required surgical protocol. Hence, the purpose of this article is to present an overview on the: (a) Incidence of massive bleeding and its consequences after implant placement in mandibular anterior region. (b) Its etiology, the precautionary measures to be taken to avoid such an incidence in clinical practice and management of such a hemorrhage if at all happens. An inclusion criterion for selection of article was defined, and an electronic Medline search through different database using different keywords and manual search in journals and books was executed. Relevant articles were selected based upon inclusion criteria to form the valid protocols for implant surgery in the anterior mandible. Further, from the selected articles, 21 articles describing case reports were summarized separately in a table to alert the dental surgeons about the morbidity they could come across while operating in this region. If all the required adequate measures for diagnosis and treatment planning are taken and appropriate surgical protocol is followed, mandibular anterior region is no doubt a preferable area for implant placement.</p>

<p>Placing dental implant in the mandibular anterior region is believed to be a regular and a relatively simple and safe procedure; however the current concepts indicate that this region is susceptible to potential morbidity and should be operated with caution.</p>
<p>In the mandibular anterior lingual region, blood vessel are considered to be of 1-2 mm diameter and it has been estimated in the study conducted by Flanagan that 400 ml of blood could be drained from a blood vessel of 1-2 mm intravascular diameter in 30 min.[<xref rid="ref1" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>
] This data gives the idea of an alarming situation if hemorrhage occurs in the mandibular anterior lingual region. In addition, since the mandible and the superficial layer of deep cervical fascia provide restriction to the hematoma anteriorly, the sublingual and the submandibular hematoma extend superiorly and posteriorly displacing the tongue and the floor of mouth to obstruct the airway [<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F1">Figure 1</xref>
].[<xref rid="ref2" ref-type="bibr">2</xref>
<xref rid="ref3" ref-type="bibr">3</xref>
<xref rid="ref4" ref-type="bibr">4</xref>
] Cases with delayed postoperative hemorrhage have also been reported, which could be linked to the compensatory vasodilatation of the offended vessel due to gradual absorption of epinephrine, loss of clot and presumptive bleeding.[<xref rid="ref5" ref-type="bibr">5</xref>
<xref rid="ref6" ref-type="bibr">6</xref>
<xref rid="ref7" ref-type="bibr">7</xref>
] The exploration of hematoma in this region is very technique sensitive because of engorgement of the tissues and the nature of injured arteries to retract into deeper tissues. This further adds to the woe and increases the complications. It has also been reported that placing implants in mandibular anterior region has claimed three lives of otherwise healthy individuals, which included a 16-year-old teenager.[<xref rid="ref8" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>
] In the last 10 years, no article has been found briefing about the precautionary measures, etiology and management of the aforementioned situation.</p>

<sec sec-type="discussion" id="sec1-4"><title>DISCUSSION</title>
<p>There are many possible causes for hemorrhagic accidents after/during implant placement which are well documented in various articles published in this regard. Apart from gross negligence on the part of the dental surgeon which includes inadequate investigations, wrong diagnosis, tissue mishandling, etc., there are some situations where likeliness of hemorrhage increases even after taking adequate precautionary measures. These situations may be summarized as follows.</p>
<sec id="sec2-2"><title>Regional anatomy</title>
<p>The most likely reason for hemorrhages to occur was bleeding from sublingual artery or its branches secondary to the lingual cortex perforation, during osteotomy preparation for implant placement.[<xref rid="ref19" ref-type="bibr">19</xref>
] Furthermore, in the review of literature it was found that in the canine region the sublingual artery follows a horizontal course to the direction of drill, but 90° to the spin of drill; therefore, at this site the sublingual artery is at greater risk for laceration or transection.[<xref rid="ref24" ref-type="bibr">24</xref>
] Several authors have concluded that the lingual aspect of central and para-symphysial mandibular region are very richly supplied by arterial plexus, which increases the probability of severe bleeding in this region.[<xref rid="ref1" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>
<xref rid="ref25" ref-type="bibr">25</xref>
] Another cause of hemorrhage could be due to resorption patterns, which are centrifugal in maxilla and centripetal in mandible. If this fact is ignored, prosthetically driven implants may get angulated in severely atrophic jaws resulting in lingual perforation and severe hemorrhage.[<xref rid="ref26" ref-type="bibr">26</xref>
] The lingual periosteum is richly supplied by blood vessels [<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F2">Figure 2</xref>
]. Any flap tearing at the time of flap elevation may turn out to be the reason for hemorrhage.[<xref rid="ref19" ref-type="bibr">19</xref>
] Sometimes extensive detrimental surgical manipulations into the deep muscular layers of the floor of the mouth or direct multiple arterial damage could lead to such life threatening hemorrhage.[<xref rid="ref26" ref-type="bibr">26</xref>
]</p>
<fig id="F2" position="float"><label>Figure 2</label>
<caption><p>A branch of the submental artery perforating the mylohyoid muscle is often present in the floor of the mouth. For this reason, this artery must be considered as either an important supplementary or a principal source of blood supply to the floor of the mouth.

</sec>
<sec id="sec2-3"><title>Anatomic variation of principal arteries in this region</title>
<p>The textbooks of anatomy mention the sublingual branch of the lingual artery as the principal blood vessel to supply the floor of mouth; however, variations have been reported in many recent cadaver studies describing submental branch of facial artery as the main supply for this region.[<xref rid="ref25" ref-type="bibr">25</xref>
<xref rid="ref27" ref-type="bibr">27</xref>
] Extensive arterial anastomoses have been reported in the mandibular anterior lingual region [Figures <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F2">2</xref>
and <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F3">3</xref>
]. The mylohyoid muscle has been considered as an extensive anastomosing field between the sublingual and submental arteries. However, their anatomical variations were highly debated in the literature. Bavitz <italic>et al.</italic>
, in his cadaver study, found that in 53% of cases sublingual artery was either small, unimportant or absent.[<xref rid="ref27" ref-type="bibr">27</xref>
] In another relevant article published by Hofschneider <italic>et al.</italic>
, it was found that incidence of missing sublingual artery (29%) and the frequency of large submental arterial branch in sublingual region (41%) were significantly lower.[<xref rid="ref25" ref-type="bibr">25</xref>
] Despite the difference in opinion regarding its occurrence, these arteries may lie superficially in atrophic cases and can be considered as potent reason of hemorrhage, if traumatized, during implant placement.</p>

<sec id="sec2-4"><title>Accessory lingual mandibular foramen of anterior segment</title>
<p>Presence of numerous accessory foramina in both buccal and lingual surfaces of the mandible has been widely documented.[<xref rid="ref5" ref-type="bibr">5</xref>
<xref rid="ref22" ref-type="bibr">22</xref>
] They vary in the content, distribution, size, position, and incidence. Of these accessory lingual mandibular foramina, the median lingual foramen [<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F4">Figure 4</xref>
] is most consistent and had been reported in 85–99% of cases.[<xref rid="ref5" ref-type="bibr">5</xref>
<xref rid="ref22" ref-type="bibr">22</xref>
] Its mean diameter has been reported to be 0.54 mm and location may vary from 10 to 13.7 mm from inferior alveolar border [Figures <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F4">4</xref>

].[<xref rid="ref22" ref-type="bibr">22</xref>
<xref rid="ref28" ref-type="bibr">28</xref>
] The lateral lingual foramen has been stated to be situated 6 mm from the inferior mandibular border, but when compared to the median lingual foramen, location of the lateral lingual foramen [<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F5">Figure 5</xref>

<p>Trauma to mandibular incisive canal (MIC) can lead to severe bleeding. A study has shown that MIC should also be considered as limiting factor for deciding the length of the implant apart from the mental anterior loop when placing implants in the anterior region. This fact is often ignored as a panoramic radiograph can detect only 2.7% of MIC where as its occurrence has been shown in 95% of cases. Hence, the authors suggest for the use of more advanced forms of diagnostic aids such as CBCT to detect MIC.[<xref rid="ref29" ref-type="bibr">29</xref>

<xref rid="ref30" ref-type="bibr">30</xref>
] Here are few measures which may help the dental surgeons in preventing an inadvertent hemorrhage.</p>
<sec id="sec3-1"><title>Proper diagnostic imaging</title>
<p>Due to the presence of anatomical variations in mandibular anterior lingual region, it is very much indicated to incorporate various imaging modalities in diagnostic procedures before proceeding with implant surgeries in this region so as to presume any possible danger while performing implant placement. Imaging procedures commonly employed in planning implant include:</p>
<p><list list-type="order"><list-item><p>Periapical radiograph.</p>
</list-item>
<list-item><p>Occlusal radiograph.</p>
</list-item>
<list-item><p>Orthopantamograph.</p>
</list-item>
<list-item><p>Computed tomography scan.</p>
</list-item>
<list-item><p>Cone beam computed tomography scan.</p>
</list-item>
</list>
</p>
</sec>
<sec id="sec3-2"><title>Periapical radiograph</title>
<p>Paralleling technique can be used to minimize image distortion although it is less practical in the anterior region where mandible is curved. Errors may get induced by bending the radiographic film to minimize patient discomfort.[<xref rid="ref31" ref-type="bibr">31</xref>
] Hence, extra cautions should be applied while interpreting these images for evaluation of mandibular canal position, facial and lingual concavities present in mandibular anterior region and ridge width.</p>
</sec>
<sec id="sec3-3"><title>Occlusal radiograph</title>
<p>It may assist in providing information about the deep lingual fossa, but most of the time the base or the crest of the mandible overlap and render the radiograph diagnostically useless in this regard.[<xref rid="ref32" ref-type="bibr">32</xref>
]</p>
</sec>
<sec id="sec3-4"><title>Panoramic radiograph</title>
<p>It is very useful in analyzing the jaw anatomy and related anatomical structure grossly. It has limitations such as lack of image sharpness, distortion of image size up to or more than 30%, if patient position is compromised. This imaging modality is very unpromising in estimating the amount of alveolar bone particularly in horizontal planes and predicting the presence of any concavities in the mandibular anterior alveolar process.[<xref rid="ref32" ref-type="bibr">32</xref>
] These limitations should not be allowed to be the reason of poor diagnosis. Though mental foramen is found to be identifiable in a good percentage of panoramic radiographs, the visibility of the anterior loop of the mental nerve and incisive canal is controversial. In a study conducted by Jalili <italic>et al.</italic>
, mental foramen, anterior loop of the mental nerve and incisive canal was seen in 94%, 66% and 70.6% of evaluated panoramic radiograph.[<xref rid="ref33" ref-type="bibr">33</xref>
] In another study conducted by Jacobs <italic>et al.</italic>

] The author in the article gives reason for this variation between the observation of incisive and mandibular canal on panoramic radiograph as incisive canal is less corticalized and is of smaller diameter than mandibular canal; moreover, X-ray beam in panoramic radiograph is angulated about 7-8° from below which could result in misinterpretation due to distortion of mandibular anatomical image. Many authors have concluded that in order to detect MIC, cross-sectional imaging technique has definite advantage over panoramic or other imaging technique which are two-dimensional, especially in cases where <15 mm of bone is remaining in height for implant placement.[<xref rid="ref35" ref-type="bibr">35</xref>

<p>It offers all ranges of images like cross-sectional, panoramic or three-dimensional view. Due to high discriminate gray scale discrimination, both the soft and the hard tissue can be identified. Yoshida <italic>et al.</italic>
in their study concluded that radiographic visualization of lingual arteries is very tough, but vascular canals can be identified in CT very adequately.[<xref rid="ref37" ref-type="bibr">37</xref>
] In the study of Jacobs <italic>et al.</italic>
, they confirmed lingual foramen and incisive canal visibility on CT of 82% and 93% of population.[<xref rid="ref35" ref-type="bibr">35</xref>
] Due to the multiplanar reformation characteristic of CT, midline structures of the mandible are visible very clearly. Furthermore, the lingual canals and its size depicted by the CT correlate very well with the data of anatomical studies. Few limitations of CT include difficulty in visualizing small canals. This is an important concern in the analysis of mandibular anterior region for implant placement.[<xref rid="ref38" ref-type="bibr">38</xref>
] In spite of its minor limitation in interpreting interforaminal region of mandible, CT has been concluded to be very accurate to visualize position or anatomy of any structure, topography of bone and diagnosing dental implant associated bony pathology.[<xref rid="ref38" ref-type="bibr">38</xref>

] Many authors in their studies have come to the conclusion that bicortical stabilization in this region is not very necessary for implant success as the bone quality is dense and cortical in nature. This fact stresses that the benefit versus risk ratio should be considered before selecting more than 13 mm implant.[<xref rid="ref14" ref-type="bibr">14</xref>
] Also, due to the presence of accessory lingual foramina within 10-13.5 mm from inferior border of mandible[<xref rid="ref22" ref-type="bibr">22</xref>

<list-item><p>Blind or fiber assisted nasotracheal intubation — This is a straight forward procedure, as it is through the nose.

<p>After securing the airway, the bleeding may decrease by itself due to pressure on the traumatized vessel by the expanding hematoma. Sometimes pulling out of tongue at the time of hemorrhage may compress lingual artery against hyoid bone, thus reducing bleeding from the traumatized vessel.[<xref rid="ref14" ref-type="bibr">14</xref>
] If this does not happen, following efforts must be undertaken to control the hemorrhage.</p>
</sec>
<sec id="sec3-8"><title>Bleeding control</title>
<p>The basic measures to control bleeding include bimanual compression which requires placing the thumb inside the mouth over a stack of gauze and the index finger outside the mouth.[<xref rid="ref6" ref-type="bibr">6</xref>
<xref rid="ref9" ref-type="bibr">9</xref>
<xref rid="ref10" ref-type="bibr">10</xref>
<xref rid="ref13" ref-type="bibr">13</xref>
] Compressing a broader area is advised to cover the posteriorly retracted vessel.[<xref rid="ref26" ref-type="bibr">26</xref>
] However, Kalpidis and Setayesh reported limited success for this method in achieving hemostasis.[<xref rid="ref26" ref-type="bibr">26</xref>
] When this measure fails, the various options available with a surgeon to terminate the intra-operative bleeding is divided into following groups:</p>
</sec>
<sec id="sec3-9"><title>Mechanical method</title>
<p>These include sutures, staples, ligating clips, fabric pads, gauzes, sponges, etc. ten Bruggenkate <italic>et al.</italic>
has documented its successful application in achieving hemostasis after hemorrhagic accident during implant placement.[<xref rid="ref7" ref-type="bibr">7</xref>
] However, Pigadas <italic>et al.</italic>
emphasized the need for drainage of hematoma and achieving hemostasis through intraoral or extra oral approach.[<xref rid="ref2" ref-type="bibr">2</xref>
] Surgical ligation of the bleeding vessel is the treatment of choice to treat hemorrhage cases. If surgical intervention is needed to achieve hemostasis, extra oral approach is preferred over intraoral for the ligation procedure. Reduced visualization, retraction of traumatized artery, distorted local anatomy of the affected site and difficulty in surgical ligation of arteries intra orally makes the intraoral approach very challenging.[<xref rid="ref1" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>
<xref rid="ref14" ref-type="bibr">14</xref>
<xref rid="ref15" ref-type="bibr">15</xref>
<xref rid="ref17" ref-type="bibr">17</xref>
<xref rid="ref26" ref-type="bibr">26</xref>
] The facial/submental artery is easily accessed and hence it must be ligated first.[<xref rid="ref25" ref-type="bibr">25</xref>
] If the bleeding does not decrease, the lingual artery must be ligated subsequently. According to the classic anatomy, lingual artery should be ligated in Pirogoff's triangle.[<xref rid="ref49" ref-type="bibr">49</xref>
]</p>
</sec>
<sec id="sec3-10"><title>Thermal method</title>
<p>These methods encompass laser coagulation, electrocautery, use of hemostatic scalpel, etc. This method scores over mechanical method as it can be used effectively to control bleeding from arteries of even smaller diameter (1-2 mm).[<xref rid="ref50" ref-type="bibr">50</xref>
] Hence, it might be comparatively more effective in achieving hemostasis in interforaminal region. Sakka and Krenkel reported successful intraoperative bleeding management through this approach.[<xref rid="ref23" ref-type="bibr">23</xref>
]</p>
<p>Limitations of above mentioned two methods are that, the mechanical method can be used only if the bleeders are identified, where as in the thermal methods specific official settings are required normally. Also, in cases where the source of bleeding is from the inflamed or friable vessels, the bony structures, and the multiple or diffuse bleeding capillaries or from the parenchymal tissues, the mechanical and the thermal methods may not be of much help. In such situations, chemical agents might prove to be more effective.</p>
</sec>
<sec id="sec3-11"><title>Chemical method</title>
<p><bold>Systemic interventions</bold>
</p>
<p>This includes hypotensive anesthesia, epinephrine, vitamin K, protamine, desmopressin, aminocaproic acid, tranexamic acid. This is kept as the last resort as it is associated with infectious as well as noninfectious risks.</p>
<p><bold>Local interventions</bold>
</p>
<p>Topical hemostat can act passively or actively in the hemorrhage control. Passive topical hemostats include collagen, cellulose, and gelatins, whereas active topical hemostats include thrombin and the products in which thrombin has been combined with passive agent (e.g. Floseal). Lee <italic>et al.</italic>
have reported the successful application of Floseal in terminating acute bleeding from anterior MIC during implant surgery.[<xref rid="ref22" ref-type="bibr">22</xref>
] Apart from these agents the topical sealants such as fibrin sealants or the synthetic glues are also frequently used. Topical sealants and glues are preferred for rapid arterial bleeding, but for other cases like bleeding from capillaries topical hemostats are the agents of choice. These agents can be applied directly at the bleeding site; they prevent adverse effects of systemic coagulants like unwanted blood clot. Moreover, the flexibility associated with the application of topical hemostat also makes it a preferable option.</p>
<p><bold>Advance measures</bold>
</p>
<p>Finally, if all the methods to control bleeding fail, external carotid artery ligation may be necessary.[<xref rid="ref26" ref-type="bibr">26</xref>
] Alternatively, the diagnostic tool available with the operator is an endovascular angiography. This will help in the exact location and isolation of bleeding sources.[<xref rid="ref51" ref-type="bibr">51</xref>
] Super selective catheterization of bleeding feeders has also become possible now due to a recent advancement in endovascular technology.[<xref rid="ref52" ref-type="bibr">52</xref>
] Theoretically, this can embolize and occlude the involved artificial branch and can prove as the alternative therapeutic measure in the disaster management of severe iatrogenic bleeding after surgical procedures.[<xref rid="ref15" ref-type="bibr">15</xref>
] However, practically no document has employed this diagnostic/therapeutic approach in the management of such conditions till now.</p>

<sec sec-type="conclusion" id="sec1-5"><title>CONCLUSION</title>
<p>Because of its easy accessibility and favorable location, the anterior mandibular region is often preferred for implant placement. However, advices generally given to inexperienced implantologists at various implant training centers to start implant placement with mandibular anterior region must be reconsidered in view of various reported cases of hazardous hemorrhagic accidents. In fact, all the appropriate preventive measures must be followed by inexperienced surgeons while placing implant in this region, to avoid such life threatening complications. Also training on “management of adequate airway occlusion” must be made mandatory with all the implant courses.</p>
<p>If all the required adequate measures for diagnosis and treatment planning are taken and appropriate surgical protocol is followed, mandibular anterior region is no doubt a preferable area for implant placement.</p>
