Edema Face

The rationale of the current research is to address the limitation of existing knowledge as it is not clear which of the two drugs (Dexamethasone or Methylprednisolone) is more effective in reduction of postoperative sequelae in patient with mandibular parasymphysis fracture. This study fills the gap by providing sound evidence on the preferred steroid option to help clinicians have more data to make decisions and improve patients' health. The result of this research will then be added to the evidence-based protocols for the treatment of parasymphysis fractures.

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether the topical application of Novox® Drop on surgical wounds after the extraction of lower third molars can have a clinical advantage. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the possible reduction of masseteric trismus (masticatory muscle spasm - primary outcome) and of post-operative pain and facial edema (swelling - secondary outcomes) after the extraction of impacted third molars compared to those who do not use it (placebo=glycerin-based gel).
