NCT05850650

Brief Summary

The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to compare pain, mouth opening, and alveolar osteitis following surgical extraction of bilateral symmetrical impacted lower third molars using two types of wound closures. Collagen plugs will be applied in the sockets of the study side followed by suture, while the controlled side will be sutured without a collagen plug. The study will include 40 patients aged between 18- 40 years old, medically fit (ASA1), who have bilateral symmetrical impacted lower third molars and visit the oral surgery clinics of King Saud Medical City for extraction. The main question is" Does intra-alveolar collagen application after surgical extraction of impacted lower third molars reduce the incidence of alveolar osteitis?

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (8)

  • Pre-extraction Pain score

    Pain measurement by VAS (0-10). 0: no pain. 10: worst pain

    Pre-extraction

  • Pre-extraction Halitosis

    Halitosis in reported in the presence of a bad odor that is smelled by the investigator during the patient's speech

    Pre-extraction

  • Pre-extraction Mouth opening

    Maximum Mouth opening is taken by a caliber

    Pre-extraction

  • Pain score Day3

    Pain measurement by VAS (0-10). 0: no pain. 10: worst pain

    3 days after extraction

  • Pain score Day7

    Pain measurement by VAS (0-10). 0: no pain. 10: worst pain

    7 days after extraction

  • Mouth opening Day7

    Maximum Mouth opening is taken by a caliber

    7 days after extraction

  • Halitosis Day7

    Halitosis in reported in the presence of a bad odor that is smelled by the investigator during the patient's speech

    7 days after extraction

  • Alveolar osteitis

    is diagnosed if the patient complains of pain (more than 5) between day 2 and day 4 with empty sockets and food debris, with or without halitosis

    After 3 days of extraction
