Aim: To study the impact of tooth sectioning on postoperative pain, swelling, and trismus after surgical extraction of impacted mandibular third molars.
Materials And Methods: The present research was conducted on a sample of 100 individuals who were in good health. The participants had an average age of 28 years and were seeking treatment at the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery for the extraction of impacted mandibular third molars.
Background: In the past few decades, there has been an increasing interest in obtaining a more instantaneous return to normal function using diverse methods of direct fixation.
Aims And Objectives: To compare the conventional 2-mm 2D (two-dimensional) miniplates and 2-mm 3D (three-dimensional) miniplates in terms of treatment outcome, stability, duration of surgery, and complications of treatment of symphysis and parasymphysis mandibular fractures.
Materials And Methods: 16 patients with clinical and radiological evidence of fractures of the mandible in symphysis and parasymphysis areas treated by open reduction and internal fixation with 2D miniplates and 3D miniplates.
Aims And Objectives: To assess the effectiveness of chitosan-based dressing after extraction in individuals on antithrombotics, without modification of their treatment schedule.
Materials And Methods: A randomized comparative study was carried out on 40 subjects who had two extraction sites, in dissimilar quadrants. The surgical site was chosen at random and post-extraction hemostasis was achieved by a custom-cut chitosan dressing (study site) and sterile cotton gauze dressing (suturing if required) at control site.
