AB  - Introduction  Prophylactic removal of mesio-angularly impacted mandibular third molars (MAIM3Ms) has been discouraged by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence in 2000. Consequently, partially erupted MAIM3Ms are retained for longer and only extracted if complications arise. The debate whether to extract prophylactically or to monitor these teeth is ongoing.
