Contemplated within the scope of the invention are Yankauer suction systems having clog removal functionality and related methods. Specifically, the system, for use with a Yankauer suction tip, includes a medial tube that is hollow and has a coupling end and a distal outlet. The coupling end is connectable to a Yankauer suction tip and the distal outlet is in fluid communication with each of a flow pump and a suction source. Also included are systems having a medial tube that is hollow and comprises a coupling end, wherein the coupling end is connectable to a Yankauer suction tip； a suction conduit that extends distally from the medial tube to a suction source, wherein the suction conduit is in fluid communication with the suction source and the coupling end； and a flow conduit that extends distally from the medial tube and is in fluid communication with a flow pump and the coupling end.
