Subcutaneous air emphysema is a rare complication which may occur subsequent to dental procedures. There is usually only moderate local swelling but, it has been documented in the scientific literature cases in which there has been a spread of larger amounts of air into deeper spaces resulting in possible life-threatening complications such as airway compromise due to the accumulation of air in the retropharyngeal space, pneumomediastinum and pneumopericardium
