Clinical Trial Summary

An Evaluation of the Effect of Using Irrigations at Different Temperatures on Pain, Edema, and Trismus During the Extraction of Bilateral Impacted Mandibular Third Molars: A Randomized Split-Mouth Clinical Trial


Clinical Trial Description

Abstract Introduction: The surgical extraction of impacted wisdom teeth is a standard practice in dentistry. Unfortunately, inflammatory reactions such as discomfort, edema, and trismus frequently jeopardize patients' well-being after the extraction of third molars. Saline solutions at room temperature (25°C) are routinely used in impacted tooth extraction. Refrigerated serums were used to work with cold serum, and since the refrigerator temperature was 4°C, this study was designed to have a cold serum temperature of 4°C. This study aims to assess the influence of saline irrigation at various temperatures (4°C, 25°C) on postoperative edema, pain, and trismus after the extraction of impacted third molars. Materials and Methods: Eighteen patients with bilateral symmetrical mandibular impacted third molars were enrolled in this split-mouth, randomized, prospective, double-blind clinical trial. For each patient, one side was irrigated with a solution at 4°C (test), and the other side was irrigated with a solution at room temperature (25°C) (control). Pain, trismus, and facial edema were noted on the 2nd, 4th, and 7th days. A Mann-Whitney U-test was used to compare pairs, and a Wilcoxon signed-rank test was used to compare groups. ;
