Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • For edema, the distances between Tragus-Pogonion, Tragus-Labial Commissure, Angulus Mandibula-Lateral Canthus will be measured preoperatively, postoperative 2nd day, 7th day and 14th day surgery.

    The edema measurement will be done preoperatively, postoperative 2nd day, 7th day and 14th day surgery.

    Up to 2 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • For the assesment of the pain, pain scale will be used.

    Up to 1 week

Study Arms (2)

lingually-based triangle flap design

EXPERIMENTAL

In the experimental group, an incision will be made adjacent to the distal surface of the mandibular second molar, and extended along the sulcus to the distobuccal corner of the mandibular second molar. An oblique vestibular incision will made and extended into the vestibular fornix of the mandible, aligned with the mesiobuccal cusp of the second molar. It was continued posterosuperiorly towards the anterior border of mandibular ramus. The lingually-based triangle flap design will be used.

Procedure: lingually-based triangle flap design

buccally based triangle flap design

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

In the control group, an incision will be made from the anterior border of the mandibular second molar. It will be extended along the sulcus to the distobuccal corner of the second molar crown. The incision will be continuous with vertical incision. The buccally based triangle flap design will be used.

Other: buccally based triangular flap design

Interventions

A mucoperiosteal lingually-based triangle flap will be raised, a conventional rotary handpiece will be used under irrigation for removing the third molar.Primary wound closure will be accomplished using 4-0 silk sutures. The patients will be invited after one week for removing the sutures.
