NCT05336578

Brief Summary

This study evaluated the anti-inflammatory effect of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) applied to the extraction socket after impacted mandibular third molar surgery with subjective and objective parameters. A total of 48 patients who had fully impacted wisdom teeth in bilateral and similar positions were included in the study. The control group was formed with the standard extraction of the lower third molars, and the PRF group was formed with local PRF application in addition to standard impacted tooth surgery (n=96). The anti-inflammatory activity of PRF on postoperative 2nd and 7th days was evaluated subjectively by clinical parameters and objectively by biochemical parameters. Subjective parameters were pain assesment, swelling measurements on the face and limitation of mouth opening. Objective data is the analysis of serum values and anti-inflammatory markers in the blood.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (14)

  • Edema measurement

    In order to evaluate the severity of edema, the tragus - mouth corner and lateral canthus - gonion distances of the patients were measured using a flexible ruler before the operation and on the 2nd and 7th days postoperatively, and the results were recorded.

    2nd day posoperatively

  • Edema measurement

    In order to evaluate the severity of edema, the tragus - mouth corner and lateral canthus - gonion distances of the patients were measured using a flexible ruler before the operation and on the 2nd and 7th days postoperatively, and the results were recorded.

    7th day posoperatively

  • Trismus measurement

    To evaluate the trismus level, the interincisal distance of the patients was measured with a flexible ruler before the operation and on the 2nd and 7th days postoperatively in both groups.

    2nd day postoperatively

  • Trismus measurement

    To evaluate the trismus level, the interincisal distance of the patients was measured with a flexible ruler before the operation and on the 2nd and 7th days postoperatively in both groups.

    7th day postoperatively

  • Pain assesment

    A visual analog scale (VAS) (Validated, subjective measure for acute and chronic pain. Scores are recorded by making a handwritten mark on a 10-cm line that represents a continuum between "no pain" and "worst pain") was given to the patients to determine the severity of pain on the operation day and on the 2nd and 7th postoperative days.

    2nd day postoperatively

  • Pain assesment

    A visual analog scale (VAS) (Validated, subjective measure for acute and chronic pain. Scores are recorded by making a handwritten mark on a 10-cm line that represents a continuum between "no pain" and "worst pain") was given to the patients to determine the severity of pain on the operation day and on the 2nd and 7th postoperative days.

    7th day postoperatively

  • Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR)

    A serum marker for analysing acute phase response, as it is necessary for initiating the inflammatory response

    2nd day postoperatively

  • Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR)

    A serum marker for analysing acute phase response, as it is necessary for initiating the inflammatory response

    7th day postoperatively

  • C-reactive protein (CRP)

    A serum marker for analysing acute phase response, as it is necessary for initiating the inflammatory response

    2nd day postoperatively

  • C-reactive protein (CRP)

    A serum marker for analysing acute phase response, as it is necessary for initiating the inflammatory response

    7th day postoperatively

  • interleukin 6 (IL-6)

    A serum marker for analysing acute phase response, as it is necessary for initiating the inflammatory response

    2nd day postoperatively

  • interleukin 6 (IL-6)

    A serum marker for analysing acute phase response, as it is necessary for initiating the inflammatory response

    7th day postoperatively

  • tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α )

    A serum marker for analysing acute phase response, as it is necessary for initiating the inflammatory response

    2nd day postoperatively

  • tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α )

    A serum marker for analysing acute phase response, as it is necessary for initiating the inflammatory response

    7th day postoperatively

Study Arms (2)

1- PRF

EXPERIMENTAL

After wisdom tooth extraction PRF located to the extraction socket

Other: Platelet rich fibrin application

PRF free

NO INTERVENTION

Only surgical procedure of the wisdom tooth extraction is performed

Interventions

PRFs were prepared by obtaining10 ml blood samples from each patinet and inserting them in a centrifuge device (Intra-Lock International Inc., Boca Raton, USA), under 2700 rpm for 12 min using high speed. The platelet-rich fibrin layer remaining between the acellular plasma and red blood cells in the tube was separated with the help of scissors or a scalpel. After the tooth extraction in the experimental group PRF located to the extraction socket.
