Study Details

Study Description

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?

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Other: Application of a collagen sponge after surgical extraction of impacted 3rd molar
  • Other: No collagen sponge application after surgical extraction of impacted 3rd molar
Phase 2

Study Design

Study Type:
Interventional
Anticipated Enrollment :
40 participants
Allocation:
Randomized
Intervention Model:
Parallel Assignment
Intervention Model Description:
The patients will have surgical extraction of impacted 3rd molars for both sides with a gap of 3 weeks. The study side will receive a collage sponge after extraction followed by sutures. The controlled side will have sutures without a collagen sponge.The patients will have surgical extraction of impacted 3rd molars for both sides with a gap of 3 weeks.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Pre-extraction Pain score [Pre-extraction]

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

  2. Pre-extraction Halitosis [Pre-extraction]

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

  3. Pre-extraction Mouth opening [Pre-extraction]

    Maximum Mouth opening is taken by a caliber

  4. Pain score Day3 [3 days after extraction]

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

  5. Pain score Day7 [7 days after extraction]

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

  6. Mouth opening Day7 [7 days after extraction]

    Maximum Mouth opening is taken by a caliber

  7. Halitosis Day7 [7 days after extraction]

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

  8. Alveolar osteitis [After 3 days of extraction]

    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
