Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| It is anticipated that the use of pneumatic elevators will result in reduced extraction time, reduced pain and greater operator ease thereby enhancing overall clinical efficiency and patient experience. Thus the pneumatic dental elevator may have superior efficacy compared to luxators and conventional forceps in routine dental extraction procedures Timepoint: Intra-operative assessment- time taken for extraction using digital stop watch | — |
