Abstract
Background and objectives: To assess the efficacy of the Cutanplast reabsorbable gelatin sponge for reducing the side effects of impacted third molar surgery.
Materials and methods: This non-randomized double-blind split-mouth study included 15 patients (30 sites) with two bilateral impacted third molars in one jaw. Following extraction, a random socket on one side was filled with a Cutanplast reabsorbable gelatin sponge with dimensions of10×50×70 mm. The sponge was inserted, however not actually used at the control site. Two independent surgeons visually examined the effect of gelatin sponge application on the occurrence of dehiscence, edema, and infection three and seven days postoperatively. Additionally, postoperative pain was quantified using a visual analog scale.
Results: At three days, there was no significant difference in the frequency of swelling between the two groups (P=0.9). At seven days, no edema was observed. By three days, no dehiscence occurred; however, at seven days, ten (66.7%) controls developed dehiscence, but no dehiscence was seen in the test group (P=0.001). The odds ratio computed for dehiscence due to the absence of gelatin was 0.67. The two groups did not differ significantly in terms of pain (P>0.05).
Conclusion: At seven days postoperatively, the use of Cutanplast resorbable gelatin prevented dehiscence, but had no effect on pain, edema, or infection.
