Introduction: Impacted third molars are a major cause of visit to the oral surgeon and are associated with various complications like pain, inflammation of associated soft tissue and trismus leading to a need for their surgical removal. They are widely classified on the basis of angulation, depth and position as evident from orthopantomogram however they present in a diverse panorama of patterns each presenting different level of difficulty and different techniques for their removal. Our study describes different pattern of impacted lower third molars and perform brief literature review of dental and skeletal implications of impacted third molars. Materials & Method: A retrospective study was designed in which 401 orthopantomogram were examined and the sex of patient, side of impaction and winters angulation based classification, depth and position classification as given by Pell and Gregory were recorded. Descriptive data analysis was performed with SPSS version 24 software. Result: Out of total number of impactions 191(47.6%) were in females and 210(52.4%) were in males. Right sided impaction was seen in 199(49.6%) cases and 202(50.4%) were seen on left side. Mesioangular impaction was most common 203(50.6%) followed by distoangular 97(24.2%), horizontal 51(12.7%) and vertical 17(4.2%). Most common depth level of impaction was level I with 203(50.6%) followed by level II 178(44.4%) and level III 20(5%). Most common position was position B 355(88.5%) followed by position A 43(10.7%) and position C 3(0.7%). The most common pattern was IB (n=170) and IIB (n=166). Conclusion: The most common impaction is mesioangular followed by distoangular and horizontal. Most of the impacted third molars are in moderately difficult position.

Abstract: Introduction and aim: The study compares the antibiotic prophylaxis combined with postoperative antibiotic therapy to preoperative chlorhexidine rinse combined with postoperative antibiotic therapy in preventing complications after surgical removal of a mandibular third molar. Method: 71 healthy patients in four groups were enrolled in the study: I. prophylactic dose of 2000 mg of amoxicillin clavulanate, continued with amoxicillin clavulanate postoperatively; II. prophylactic dose of 600 mg of clindamycin, continued with clindamycin postoperatively; III. prophylactic chlorhexidin rinsing, continued randomized amoxicillin clavulanate or clindamycin postoperatively; IV. control, with clindamycin postoperatively. Results: The pain was smaller in the prophylaxis groups. Alveolitis occurred only in the control group: 2 patients. Wound opening occurred in 22,2 % in group IV., 14,2 % in group II, 10 % in group I., 5 % in group III. Conclusion: We consider completing the indicated postoperative antibiotic prescription with antibiotic or antiseptic prophylaxis. Chlorhexidin prophylaxis could have the same positive effect. Orv.

Introduction: Surgery of mandibular third molar teeth for removal is one of the most common procedures undertaken in oral and maxillofacial surgery departments. The complications created by the post extraction wound healing and physiological consecution of third molar surgery can affect patients' quality of life. Platelet rich plasma (PRP) is an autologous concentrate of platelets suspended in the Plasma that accelerates healing by concentration of growth factors which lessen the inflammation and as a result pain and trismus. Materials and methods: A Study was conducted on 130 patients at the department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, FUCD Islamabad, for a period of 6 months after ethical approval. The patients with impacted mandibular wisdom teeth were selected and divided equally into two equal groups. The pain score was measured using the visual analogue scale (VAS) and trismus was measured using Vernier caliper before the surgery, immediately after surgery, on 3rd and 7th follow up visits. Results: The mean postoperative pain on 7th day was significantly lower in the PRP group with statistically significant P-value <0.0001. Trismus was also less reported in the PRP group with P-value <0.00065. Conclusion: Platelet Rich Plasma is effective to lessen trismus and pain after surgical removal of mandibular third molar teeth.
