Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1)Post operative pain will be assessed using Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and graded from 0-10 (no pain to worst pain). 2)Wound healing and tissue approximation will be assessed based on Landryâ??s index which is based on numerous clinical features such as tissue colour, presence of bleeding on palpation, presence of granulation tissue, incision margin and presence of suppuration. 3)Facial swelling will be assessed by using Gogulanathan M. et. Al 2015. 4) Mouth opening will be assessed by measuring inter incisal distance.Timepoint: On post operative days 1, 3 , 5 ,7

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
