NCT03913884

Brief Summary

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of concentrated growth factor (CGF) on soft tissue healing and postoperative side effects following third molar surgery. This study was designed on 60 patients as a randomized single-blind clinical trial. The predictor variable was the implementation of CGF fibrin matrix, which was categorized as CGF and non-CGF. The primary outcome variable of the study was the healing of soft tissue around the extraction socket. The secondary outcome variables were pain, swelling and trismus. Data were analyzed using the non-parametric Brunner and Langer model. Statistical significance was set at P \< .001.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • soft tissue healing

    This was assessed on the third and seventh preoperative days using the healing index classified by Landry et al.12. It depends on tissue colour, presence of bleeding on palpation, epithelization of wound margins, granulation tissue and suppuration, and rates the degree of healing attained from 'very poor' to 'excellent'.

    Change of soft tissue healing at 7 days

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • severity of postoperative pain

    Change of postoperative pain at 7 days

  • presence of swelling

    Change of swelling at 7 days

  • presence of trismus

    Change of trismus at 7 days

Study Arms (2)

Concentrated growth factor Group

EXPERIMENTAL

Group I (test); in which CGF fibrin matrix was applied to the extraction socket

Procedure: Concentrated growth factor

Non-Concentrated growth factor Group

EXPERIMENTAL

Group II (control); in which CGF was not applied to the extraction socket

Other: Non-Concentrated growth factor Group

Interventions

CGF fibrin matrix was placed in one socket which was randomly selected (test side). The flap was sutured with 4/0 atraumatic silk suture (½ cutting edge, 75 cm, Doğsan, İstanbul, Turkey) for each surgical site.

Concentrated growth factor Group

To control group, extraction of the tooth on the opposite site was performed and the socket left to heal naturally. The flap was sutured with 4/0 atraumatic silk suture (½ cutting edge, 75 cm, Doğsan, İstanbul, Turkey) for each surgical site.

Non-Concentrated growth factor Group
