The aim of the study was to compare the possible effects of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and low-level laser (BIOLASE) on postoperative complications after extraction of impacted mandibular wisdom teeth. 60 impacted wisdom teeth of 30 healthy individuals who applied to the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Faculty of Dentistry, XXX University, with the indication of extraction of impacted mandibular wisdom teeth were included in the study. 60 impacted wisdom teeth of the individuals were randomly divided into two groups (A and B). In a randomized controlled trial, platelet-rich plasma (PRP) was applied to the first group (A) (one side of the same patients) and low-level laser therapy (LLLT) was applied to the second group (B) (the other side of the same patient) immediately after surgery. VAS (Visual analog scale) for pain assessment, facial measurements for edema assessment and maximum mouth opening for trismus assessment were compared with preoperative values.
The aim of the study was to compare the possible effects of platelet rich plasma (PRP) and low level laser (BIOLASE) on postoperative complications after extraction of impacted lower wisdom teeth. Sixty impacted wisdom teeth of 30 healthy individuals who applied to XXX University, Faculty of Dentistry, Department of Oral, Dental and Maxillofacial Surgery with an indication for extraction of impacted lower wisdom teeth were included in the study. The 60 impacted wisdom teeth of the individuals were randomly divided into two groups (A and B). In a randomised, controlled study, the first group (A) (one side of the same patients) received platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and the second group (B) (the other side of the same patient): diode laser Low-level laser therapy (LLLT) were applied immediately to the patient after surgery. VAS (Visual analogue scale) was used for pain assessment and assessments were made at 3rd, 6th, 12th and 24th hours and at 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th days. For edema assessment, preoperative facial measurements were repeated on the 2nd and 7th postoperative days and recorded. For trismus evaluation, the maximum mouth opening measurement made preoperatively was repeated and recorded on postoperative days 2 and 7.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Platalet Rich Plasma (PRP) | Active Comparator | Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a preparation of autologous human platelet concentration enriched in a small amount of plasma produced by centrifuging a patient's own blood. It is applied to the extraction socket after the extraction of an impacted wisdom tooth |
|
| Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) | Active Comparator | Low-level laser therapy is a technology that has been used since the mid-1960s to treat a variety of conditions requiring healing stimulation, pain and inflammation relief, and restoration of function. A single 940 nm diode laser was applied intraorally for 120 seconds (BIOLASE) immediately after the extraction and suturing of an impacted wisdom tooth. |

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Visual Analog Scale (VAS) | In the pain assessment, the patients were given a VAS form at 3, 6, 12 and 24 hours and on the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th days and the pain felt by the patient was marked on this scale. This form consists of numbers between 0 and 10. 0 represents 'no pain at all' and 10 represents 'worst possible pain'. | 3, 6, 12 and 24 hours and the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th days |
| Trismus | In all patients participating in the study, the maximum interincisal distance for trismus was measured and recorded by the same physician before the operation and on the 2nd and 7th days after the operation. | preop, 2th and 7th days |
| Edema | For edema, some anatomical points on the face were taken as reference points and the distance between these points was measured with a tape measure and recorded. The angulus point was determined as the center point and the distances between angulus-tragus, angulus-lateral corner of the eye, angulus-nasal base, angulus-labial commissure and angulus-pogonion point were measured. | preop, 2th and 7th days |
