Clinical and Radiographic Comparison of Two Minimally Invasive Tooth Extraction Systems
Abstract
The aim of the study is to compare the effectiveness of the vertical extraction system Benex and Physics forceps with the conventional extraction tools (extraction forceps and elevators) in the early wound healing period after tooth extraction, as means for minimally invasive tooth extraction.
All patients aged 18 years and over who require closed tooth extraction with good oral hygiene were eligible for participation.
Participants were randomly allocated to tooth extraction with either Benex, Physics forceps or conventional extraction tools using box randomization. Patients are followed up during the recovery period to assess pain and early wound healing, while at the time of extraction, success and buccal cortical plate fracture were evaluated.
Conditions: Tooth Extraction Status Nos.
Primary outcome: Extraction success; Alveolar bone buccal cortical plate preservation; VAS pain score; Early wound healing.
Enrollment: 116 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a randomized trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 2 of 5 (High · randomized trial). Randomized trials of a reasonable size are the strongest single-study design. Reported size: 116 participants or records.
