“…13,14 Deficient oral hygiene and smoking are important risk factors in oral surgical wound healing, because smoking reduces immune function and affects the oral flora-giving rise to greater numbers of anaerobic bacteria. 16,17 Our data coincide with those of Garcia and colleagues, 4 with patients improving tooth brushing and smoking less than before the biopsy.…”

“…As such, tetracyclines function by inhibiting bacterial multiplication and growth. 16,17 Our data coincide with those of Garcia and colleagues, 4 with patients improving tooth brushing and smoking less than before the biopsy. There were no significant differences between groups without superscript letters and any other group.…”

“…(1,2,5) The determination of the effects of operation duration on clinical outcomes was performed in this study since prolonged operation associated with difficult operation, more surgical trauma, excessive inflammatory response, prolonged mouth opening and more incidence of complications (since operation performed by the same operator). (1) The difference noticed in some variables of HRQOL at the 3 rd day and dry socket incidence in this study was in agreement with that of other studies, (1,(3)(4)(5) which stated that dry socket incidence increased with increasing operation time.…”

“…With this modality, the goal is to cause maximum regeneration of bone with minimum post-operative pain and avoidance of delay healing that may be the cause of dry socket and pain. (2) Different local agents used for that purposes includes: Antibiotic, (3) antiseptic, (4) occlusive dressing (5) and antifibrinolytics. (1) Variable factors contribute to the dev-elopment of dry socket making its etiology unclear.…”

Aim:To asses the effects of topical application of aqueous extract of either Propolis or Miswak on the post-operative outcomes in relation to the duration of operation after surgical removal of lower third molar was performed. Material and Methods: A total of 97 patients participated and distributed randomly into 3 groups according to the medicament applied into the extraction socket: Group I, in which 5% aqueous solution of propolis extract used; group II, in which 10% aqueous solution of Miswak extract used; and group III, in which distilled water used (control group). Results: A significant improvement in post-operative outcome at 3 rd day in both group I and II comparing to group III was observed. No significant difference noticed at 1 st day and 6 th day. Assessment of dry socket showed no significant difference in between the three study groups. However, when assessment performed in relation with operation time, a significant difference noticed in between the three study groups with high incidence of dry socket reported in operation take longer than 30 minutes in the three study groups. Conclusion: Aqueous extract of Miswak and Propolis as a topical medicament following lower third molar extraction had a slight reducing effect on the severity of post-operative complications.Al-Sultan FA, Mustafa LA, Al-Niaimi AI.

“…The occurrence of AO is unavoidable in everyday tooth extractions (Tarakji et al, 2015). The average incidence ranges from 1% to 4% in usual dental extractions (Butler and Sweet, 1977;Blum, 2002;Sanchis et al, 2004). It most commonly occurs after extracting lower third molars, and the incidence varies from 1% to 37.5% (Swanson, 1966;Heasman and Jacobs, 1984) and has a highest incidence in the 40-to 45-year-old age group (Rud, 1970;Rood and Danford, 1981).…”
