    The objective of this study was to determine the frequency of subcutaneous emphysema associated with the use of a high-speed handpiece in third molar extraction in patients treated at the Central Military Hospital, Lima, 2017. The study was descriptive, cross-sectional, and retrospective. The population consisted of 350 medical records from the Stomatology Department of the Central Military Hospital. A non-probabilistic sampling method was used, selecting 156 medical records of patients aged 18 to 25 who were treated during 2017 and underwent third molar extraction requiring osteotomy and odontosection with a high-speed handpiece, and had retained lower third molars classified as Pell & Gregory Class II. The results showed no subcutaneous emphysema with the use of the high-speed handpiece (0%). According to the variables studied, including gender, side, and cranial type, no subcutaneous emphysema was observed (0%). Therefore, it was concluded that no subcutaneous emphysema was observed with the use of the high-speed handpiece in third molar extraction.
