2) Explore the sockets gently with curet
3) Irrigate the socket and place the dresssing
4) Radiographic examination of the area

4) None of the above are correct

📝 Explanation:

The risk associated with open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) in older patients is not solely due to their age or increased bone density. It's important to consider their overall health, including potential comorbidities and reduced healing capacity. The risks might be higher due to factors like poor bone quality, increased surgical time, and the potential for complications such as infection and nonunion.
