Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Pain

    Visual Analogue Scale,VAS

    Day 7

  • Swelling

    Facial swelling was measured in 2 planes: the distance between the tragus and lip commissure and the distance between the gonion and external canthus of the eye.

    Day 3; Day 7

  • Trismus

    Trismus was evaluated by measuring the maximum mouth opening between the edges of the upper and lower central incisors with a calibrated ruler.

    Day 3; Day 7

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Quality of life score

    Day 3; Day 7

Study Arms (2)

Control Group

SHAM COMPARATOR

The irradiation protocol was the same as that of the experimental group, and the light source used was simulated light. After surgery, patients took ibuprofen 0.3 g bid for 3 consecutive days, metronidazole 0.1 g tid, and cefaclor 0.375 g bid for 7 consecutive days.

Drug: Antibiotic

Treatment Group

EXPERIMENTAL

LED light was irradiated 4 times (830 nm, 50 mW/cm2, 60 J/cm2, 1200 s) on D1 (before and after surgery), D2, and D3, which was extraoral irradiation. After surgery, ibuprofen 0.3 g bid for 3 consecutive days, metronidazole 0.1 g tid, and cefaclor 0.375 g bid for 7 consecutive days were taken.

Device: photobiomodulationDrug: Antibiotic

Interventions

830 nm LED was used to irradiate the post-extraction area

Treatment Group

ibuprofen 0.3 g bid for 3 days, metronidazole 0.1 g tid, and cefaclor 0.375 g bid for 7 days after surgery

Masking Details
This study was a double-blind study in which the patient, the surgeon, and the statistician were all unaware of whether the patient received treatment or a placebo control light . Only the operator using the LED light was aware of this information. The assigned group was recorded on sealed and opaque envelopes. These cards were prepared by an independent person who was not involved in the study protocol. Once the patient underwent extraction and agreed to participate in this trial, this independent person opened the envelope to reveal the allocation.
