ABSTRACT Aims and objectives To understand the benefits of dexamethasone and compare the effects of submucosal vs intramuscular (IM) administration of dexamethasone in reducing postoperative sequelae following impacted mandibular third molar surgery. Materials and methods The study was conducted on 90 patients, who were divided into three groups of 30 each. The two experimental groups were given dexamethasone 4 mg submucosally or intramuscularly (preoperatively), and the control group did not receive any form of corticosteroid. Measurements of facial swelling and maximal interincisal distance were made preoperatively and on the 1st, 3rd, and 7th postoperative days. Pain was evaluated from patients' response to visual analog scale and recording the number of rescue analgesic tablets taken at the end of the 7th postoperative day. Results Both dexamethasone groups showed a significant reduction in pain, swelling, and trismus as compared with the control group at all intervals. There was a statistically significant reduction in magnitude of swelling in the submucosal dexamethasone group as compared with the IM dexamethasone group on the 1st postoperative day, but there was no significant difference among two experimental groups at other times and their effects were comparable for all variables. Conclusion Dexamethasone 4 mg is an effective therapeutic strategy for reducing postoperative sequelae following surgical removal of impacted third molars and submucosal dexamethasone is an effective alternative to dexamethasone given systemically.

Significant Difference

Objective: To compare the wound healing with triangular flap versus envelope flap techniques among patients undergoing surgical removal of the impacted mandibular third molar (IMTM). Study Design: An open label randomized controlled trial. Place and Duration of the Study: The Department of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery, Bakhtawar Amin Medical and Dental College, Multan from January 2021 to June 2021. Material and Methods: A total of 70 patients (35 in each group) of both genders aged 20 to 50 years requiring surgical removal of IMTM were included. Patients were asked to follow up on third and seventh day while observations regarding wound healing and pain were noted on 7th day among all cases completing the final follow up. Chi square was applied to compare data between both study groups taking p-value below 0.05 as significant. Results: In a total of 70 patients, there were 42 (60.0%) female and 28 (40.0%) female. Majority of the patients, 36 (51.4%) were above 30 years of age while mean age was noted to be 32.4+9.1 years. Sixty two patients completed the follow up so they were included in the final analysis for the assessment of wound healing and pain. Overall, wound healing was observed to be in 55/62 (88.7%) patients while wound healing was found to be 30/32 (93.8%) patients in envelope flap group in comparison to 25/30 (83.3%) in triangular flap group (p=0.1953). Overall, there was no statistically significant difference in between both study group with regards to evaluation of pain (p=0.3271) Conclusion: Both envelop flap and triangular flap techniques resulted in similar outcomes regarding wound healing among patients undergoing surgical removal of IMTM. Both flap techniques resulted in relatively similar degrees of post-surgery pain. Keywords: Third molar, pain, wound healing.

And Control

Despite the frequent discussion of complications associated with surgical removal of wisdom teeth in the scientific literature, increased mobility of the second molar, which can affect the clinical status of the pulp, is often downplayed or overlooked. This study aimed to evaluate surgical removal of an impacted third molar on the change in the electrosensitivity of the pulp of the mandibular second molar. Sixty patients consecutively presenting to the Department of Oral Surgery to remove an impacted mandibular third molar were included in the study. Clinical examinations of pulp sensitivity of second molars in both the study and control groups were evaluated before the procedure, seven days after the procedure, and eight weeks after the procedure. The surgical removal of an impacted mandibular third molar significantly affected the pulp sensitivity of the second molar.
