Comparison of Piezoelectric and Conventional Surgery for Germectomy of the Lower Third Molar
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
Piezoelectric technique in third molar germectomy: Application of piezoelectric technique in third molar germectomy procedures
Traditional technique in third molar germectomy: Application of traditional technique in third molar germectomy procedures
Study summary
The main objective of the study is to compare the effects of the piezoelectric surgery and the traditional technique on soft tissue edema in patients undergoing bilateral germectomy of mandibular third molars
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Facial swelling qualitative analysis — Change from baseline (before surgery) at 2 day after surgery and at 7 days after surgery
To compare the effectiveness of piezosurgery in reducing facial swelling using qualitative three-dimensional analysis (measured by colorimetric variation given by the overlapping volumes) - Facial swelling quantitative analysis - volumetric differences — Change from baseline (before surgery) at 2 day after surgery and at 7 days after surgery
To compare the effectiveness of piezosurgery in reducing facial swelling using quantitative three-dimensional analysis ( volumes measured in cm3) - Facial swelling quantitative analysis - linear differences — Change from baseline (before surgery) at 2 day after surgery and at 7 days after surgery
To compare the effectiveness of piezosurgery in reducing facial swelling using quantitative three-dimensional analysis (linear differences measured in cm2)
