- Surgical removal of impacted third molars often leads to post-operative pain, swelling, and trismus, prompting the study to compare the effectiveness of different dexamethasone administration routes.
- The study involved 60 patients divided into three groups: a control group, an oral dexamethasone group, and an intra-masseteric injection group, with evaluations conducted over seven days for pain, swelling, and trismus.
