Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
To compare the effect of two oral doses of magnesium oxide on postoperative pain intensity in patients undergoing dental surgical proceduresTimepoint: Postoperative pain will be assessed using the Visual Analogue Scale at the following time points 30 minutes 1 hour 2 hours 6 hours and 12th hour after the procedure	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
To assess postoperative recovery using the Aldrete score To evaluate the safety & tolerability of two oral doses of magnesium oxide by monitoring adverse effects in dental surgical patients Timepoint: The Aldrete score will be assessed at the following time points at 0th hour 10 minutes & 20 minutes & at the time of discharge from the recovery room. Patient safety will also be evaluated based on these Aldrete score assessments	—
