摘要：Background: A tooth is said to be impacted if it does not reach the occlusal plane even after two-thirds root formation. The aetiology of impacted teeth is varied and multifactorial. Significant problems associated with impacted teeth include trismus, infection, cervical caries of second molars. Impacted teeth may be non-functional, abnormal or pathologic and the etiology of impaction depends on several factors. Aim:The aim of this study was to determine the incidence of dental caries in the mandibular 2nd molar associated with impacted mandibular 3rd molar. Materials & Methods: A total of 2379 patients who were observed to have impacted mandibular 3rd molar were taken from April 2020 to March 2021.The data was collected from the patient management system. The data was collected and the analysis was done using SPSS by IBM version 23. Results: Out of the 2379 patients who were observed to have impacted mandibular 3rd molar,67.21% of the patients had dental caries in the adjacent mandibular 2nd molar, whereas 32.79% had no dental caries. 55.40% of the patients were males and 44.60% were females. Conclusion: Most of the patients who were observed to have impacted mandibular 3rd molar had dental caries in the adjacent mandibular 2nd molar. Out of the patients with dental caries in the mandibular 2nd molar, most of them were males.
