Comparison of the Efficiency of Tissue Adhesive (Periacryl 90) and Silk Suture in Bilateral Mandibular Impacted Wisdom Teeth Surgery
Comparison of the Efficiency of Tissue Adhesive (Periacryl 90) and Silk Suture in Bilateral Mandibular Impacted Wisdom Teeth Surgery
This study was administered to 21 female and 9 male patients. Patients with impacted wisdom teeth on both sides of the mandible were selected. After extraction of the impacted teeth, silk sutures were used on one side and cyanoacrylate tissue adhesive on the other side for wound closure. The effects of these two materials on patient comfort were investigated.
The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of tissue adhesive (Periacryl 90) and silk suture in bilateral mandibular impacted wisdom tooth surgery. In the study of 30 patients, 21 females and 9 males, 60 fully impacted lower wisdom teeth were extracted bilaterally and in the same position. One of the bilaretal teeth of the patients was randomly selected and tissue adhesive (Periacryl 90) was applied for wound closure as the experimental group, while the other tooth was selected as the control group and the wound was closed with silk suture. The selected side was determined by a closed envelope procedure. After the first impacted tooth extraction, the patient waited until the wound healed and the symptoms disappeared completely, and then the other tooth was extracted. Both extractions were evaluated on days 3 and 7 for wound healing, edema and trismus. Wound healing was evaluated as good, acceptable and poor. VAS (Visual Analog Scale) was used for pain assessment
