Comparing the effect of injectable betamethasone with oral betamethasone in mandibular wisdom teeth surgery

Abstract

Considering the high prevalence of dental wisdom surgery and its complications, studies have suggested ways to reduce these complications. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of betamethasone on pain relief, inflammation, and trismus after surgery. This research is based on a clinical trial double-blind split mouse using observational technique. 24 people of the patients referred to the Department of Oral and Dental Surgery with a third molar in a similar situation and with the same degree of difficulty are included in the study. The ethical considerations of this research will be approved by the Ethics Committee oft he medical research of Tabriz Dentistry faculty. Surgery will be performed by a surgeon using a similar surgical procedure. Patients are randomly divided into two groups of 12 people. In the first group after having the surgery, betamethasonein injection in the right or left jaw will be injected in the Vistbol region. In the second group, 2 mg betamethasone was injected before surgery and 2 mg oral betamethasone was taken one hour before surgery. The severity of pain is measured by the VAS. The pain is measured 6 hours after the end of surgery, day 1, 2 and 3 after surgery. Inflammation of the face and trismus are recorded at 48 hours and 7 days after surgery. Trismus is studied by measuring the maximum opening of the mouth with the calipers. Inflation is specified as tragus reference points to the corner of the lips. To compare pain, inflammation, and the level of oral openness in two groups,T-pair test (in case of normal distribution of data) or Wikaksone test (non-normal distribution of data) will be used.
