Comparison of A-PRF vs Bone Wax in Hemostasis, Pain Relief and Healing Following Exodontia
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the pain relief and healing effect of A-PRF and Bone-wax in patients having mandibular tooth-extractions. The main question[s] it aims to answer are:
In the perspective of improvement in pain and healing;
-
Does A-PRF performs better than control group?
-
Does Bone-wax performs better than control group?
-
Healing index and Pain scale score Comparison of A-PRF and Bone-wax; if one is better than the other? Participants will be asked to give resoponse to a post-operative symptom severiety (PoSSe) scale. An investigator will score the patient's extraction for hemostasis and on healing index [describe the main tasks participants will be asked to do, treatments they'll be given and use bullets if it is more than 2 items]. If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare [insert groups] to see if [insert effects].

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Pain Relief on VAS [21 days]
Patients receiving any of the intervention will be evaluated at just before, 3rd, 7th and 21st day of dental extraction on Visual Analogue Scale (VAS).
- Extraction socket healing [21 days]
Patients receiving any of the intervention will be evaluated at 3rd, 7th and 21st day of dental extraction on Healing index by Landry et al.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Hemostasis [30 minutes]
The post-operative bleeding will be evaluated 30 minutes after the placement of the last suture as: No bleeding Mild Bleeding: bleeding that stopped spontaneously or with minimal local compression. Severe Bleeding: bleeding that did not stop with the previous measures and that required local adrenaline or continuous local compression using gauze pack soaked in the corresponding antifibrinolytic agent until the bleeding stops
