The objective of this systematic review was to test the hypothesis of no difference in recovery following surgical removal of mandibular third molars with the application of advanced platelet-rich fibrin (A-PRF) in the extraction socket compared with alternative biomaterials or natural wound healing. A search of MEDLINE (PubMed), Embase, Cochrane L...

Objectives: Cryotherapy is frequently used to diminish postoperative sequelae following mandibular third molar surgery. The objective of this single-blinded randomized controlled trial was to assess the therapeutic efficiency of 30 minutes continuous cryotherapy on postoperative sequelae following surgical removal of mandibular third molars compare...

Purpose: The aim was to test the null-hypothesis of no difference in pain, trismus, swelling and quality of life following surgical removal of mandibular third molar (SRM3) with 30 minutes of immediate cryotherapy compared with no cryotherapy using clinical assessment, visual analogue scale (VAS), questionnaires and three-dimensional imaging. Metho...

Background: The objective of the present study was to compare the efficacy of different doses of methylprednisolone on postoperative sequelae and quality of life (QoL) following surgical removal of mandibular third molars (SRM3). Material and methods: Fifty-two patients (16 men and 36 women, mean age 25.9 years, range: 18-39) with bilateral impa...

The plaster cast model (PCM) needs to precisely reproduce the patient’s dentition to ensure optimal fit of the surgical splint; However, transporting physical models entails a risk of fracture of cusps, brackets or entire models. This study evaluated whether clinically significant differences (>1 mm) exist between the patient’s dentition and the PC...

Objectives: To evaluate the influence of a single intraoperative injection of methylprednisolone on short-term haematological parameters following surgical removal of mandibular third molars. Material and Methods: Fifty-two patients with indications for surgical removal of bilateral impacted mandibular third molars were included in a randomized, s...

The objective was to test the hypothesis of no difference in facial swelling, pain, trismus and immediate quality of life after surgical removal of mandibular third molars, with or without postoperative cryotherapy. A MEDLINE (PubMed), Embase database and Cochrane library search in combination with a hand search of relevant journals was conducted b...

Objectives: The objective of the present systematic review was to test the hypothesis of no difference in facial swelling, pain and trismus after surgical removal of mandibular third molar with different dosages of corticosteroids and administration routes. Material and Methods: A MEDLINE (PubMed), Embase database and Cochrane Library search in co...

p> Background: The interest in three-dimensional imaging in orthognathic treatment planning has been growing, especially for evaluation of the natural head position. Several three-dimensional devices are available on the market. Three-dimensional evaluation of the patient will probably soon be a standard tool/method in orthognathic treatment planni...

The literature shows that the indications for orthognathic surgery (OS) are often functional problems and unsatisfactory facial esthetics. This study investigated the esthetic outcomes and overall satisfaction following OS. Somatosensory change is a relatively common complication and its influence on the level of satisfaction was studied. The socia...
