Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Postoperative wound healing [7th postoperative day]
A 5 point early wound healing scale assessing wound healing after 7 postoperative days
- Postoperative pain [1st postoperative day]
A 100 mm visual analogue scale assessing postoperative pain. Possible pain scores ranges from 0 (worst pain) to 100 (worst possible pain).
- Postoperative pain [2nd postoperative day]
A 100 mm visual analogue scale assessing postoperative pain. Possible pain scores ranges from 0 (worst pain) to 100 (worst possible pain).
- postoperative pain [3rd postoperative day]
A 100 mm visual analogue scale assessing postoperative pain. Possible pain scores ranges from 0 (worst pain) to 100 (worst possible pain).
- postoperative pain [4th postoperative day]
A 100 mm visual analogue scale assessing postoperative pain. Possible pain scores ranges from 0 (worst pain) to 100 (worst possible pain).
- postoperative pain [5th postoperative day]
A 100 mm visual analogue scale assessing postoperative pain. Possible pain scores ranges from 0 (worst pain) to 100 (worst possible pain).
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Presence of dry socket [3rd postoperative day]
presence of pain, foul odour, exposed bone in the extraction socket
