Controlling Post-extraction Complications of Impacted Mandibular Third Molar

July 20, 2021 updated by: Alaa Altaweel, Al-Azhar University

Methylprednisolone and Hyaluronic Acid Versus Each Agent Alone to Control Post-extraction Complications of Impacted Mandibular Third Molar

Impacted mandibular 3rd molar will be extracted in all patients, then patients will be divided, according to material placed in extraction socket into 3 groups: control, hyaluronic acid and honey. Then post extraction complications will be evaluated

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Impacted Mandibular third molar will be extracted under local anesthesia Through standard surgical flap elevation, after extraction and wound irrigation a material facilitate healing will be placed. According to material will be placed patients will be divide into 3 group: control ( no material, second group hyaluronic acid, third group ( honey).. then wound will be closed. Postoperative pain ( through visual analog scale) , edema, total dose of analgesic, mandibular movement (interincisal distance in mm) will be evaluated preoperative, 1,2,3,7, and 10 day after extraction
