The aim of the study was to evaluate the main reasons for removal of impacted mandibular third molars in the Armed Forces Personnel of Pakistan. The study was designed as there are variations in behavior and economic conditions and also the people from different areas of Pakistan as well as ethnic groups are representing here, and because no long term studies exists which validate the benefit to patients either of early removal or deliberate retention of these teeth. 75 patients were included in the study, who attended the Oral Surgery Department (OSD) at AFID for removal of their impacted mandibular third molars. From 75 studied patients the data for 60 fully cooperative patients were collected and results were obtained.
