I use to get a little worried I couldn’t find the impacted tooth when I first started learning about wisdom teeth surgery. There are some good clues- Obviously the imaging is helpful, especially CBCT’s (cone beam cat scans), but you still have to do the surgery and manage the blood, saliva, and visibility, etc.
Painting the bone really refers to the bur as it selectively wants to cut the softer bone over enamel. So lightly going over it until you feel and hear the chattering of the enamel is super helpful.
