Third Molars Extraction

The present study aims to compare the effects of saline, chlorhexidine, and hydrogen peroxide irrigation solutions at different temperatures on postoperative complications, including pain, swelling, and mouth opening, as well as oral health-related quality of life, in patients undergoing surgical extraction of impacted mandibular third molars. The irrigation solutions will be applied immediately following surgical tooth extraction at temperatures of either 4°C or 25°C. An a prior power analysis based on repeated-measures analysis of variance (Repeated Measures ANOVA, within-between interaction) was performed. An effect size of f = 0.25, a Type I error rate (α = 0.05), and a statistical power of 1 - β = 0.95 were assumed. Based on the power analysis, a minimum of 11 participants per group was determined to be sufficient. Considering potential loss to follow-up and missing data, the sample size was increased by approximately 15%, and it was decided to enroll 13 participants in each group. Accordingly, the planned study will be conducted with a total of 78 participants allocated to six groups, and all participants will be evaluated at four different time points.

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the efficacy of bupivacaine and ropivacaine in third molar removal surgery under general anesthesia in healthy volunteers. The main question aims to determine whether there is any difference in vital signs, hemostasis and postoperative pain between ropivacaine and bupivacaine in patients undergoing third molars extraction under general anesthesia. Researchers will compare bupivacaine and ropivacaine in a split-mouth study to determine if one drug is more effective in third molar extraction surgery under general anesthesia (better hemostasis, less postoperative pain, and fewer changes in vital signs). Participants will undergo a single surgical procedure and complete the Visual Analog Scale to record postoperative pain

The general objective of this split-mouth study is to analyze the osteogenic action of BTCP during the bone regeneration process following the extraction of impacted mandibular third molars.
