Effectiveness of Gelatamp in Wound Healing After Extraction of Teeth: A Randomized Clinical Trial

This study compares the effectiveness of Gelatamp for intraoral wound closure after extraction of mandibular teeth.

In the interventional group, after extraction of mandibular teeth, the extraction socket will be augmented with Gelatamp. Then a gauze pack will be placed over it.

In the control group, after extraction of mandibular teeth, a gauze pack will be placed over the socket.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Patients requiring extraction of mandibular teeth
• Healthy patients (ASA I) or patients with mild systemic disease but no functional limitations (ASA II)
• Patients not allergic to the drugs or anesthetics used in the study.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Patients taking medications that influences wound healing
• smokers
• Uncooperative patients
• Patients requiring extraction of grade II or III mobile teeth
• Patients requiring surgical extraction of teeth.
