| Piezo-electric surgery of impacted lower third molars | Procedure | During lower third molar surgery, osteotomy is performed using piezoelectric instrumentation. When necessary, tooth sectioning was performed with a high-speed tungsten carbide slit drill under saline irrigation and the tooth removed in single or multiple segments. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Facial swelling | T0-T1 and T0-T2 scans are opened and superimposed through three reference points: endocanthion left (inner most point on commissure of left eye fissure), endocanthion right (inner most point on commissure of right eye fissure) and subnasale (mid point of columella). After matching, the swelling was calculated by selecting the area of the swelling and subtracting the two images. | 7 days |
