%X UNASSIGNED: A comparative study of pain and healing in post-dental extraction sockets treated with ozonated water/oil and normal saline.
UNASSIGNED: The present study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of ozonated water/oil in reducing pain and enhancing healing and swelling following dental extractions and surgical removal of impacted mandibular third molars.
UNASSIGNED: Clinical trial was conducted involving 50 individuals requiring two-stage bilateral removal of tooth of which 25 patients were for asymptomatic bilateral extractions and 25 patients for surgical removal of asymptomatic bilaterally similar impacted mandibular third molars. The patients were divided into two groups following a split-mouth design: In group I, sterile ozonated water was irrigated in the sockets after extraction for 2 min on study side and normal saline on the control side following extraction. In group II, transalveolar extractions/surgical extraction of impacted mandibular III molars were carried out under copious irrigation with sterile ozonated water on study side and normal saline irrigation on control side evaluated by independent observer on 2nd, 4th and 7th day for the efficacy of ozonated water/oil in reducing pain and enhancing healing in post-dental extraction sockets.
UNASSIGNED: The use of ozonated water/oil increased the healing rate in all extraction cases, except in 4% of cases in which they did not show any effect of healing in extraction sockets on 7th postoperative day. The use of ozonated water/oil did not show any effects on the healing rate in impaction cases in all postoperative days. The use of ozonated water/oil showed decreased incidence of pain in subjects of both extraction and impaction cases.
