Brief summary
The aim of this study was investigate the comparison of postoperative effects of low laser treatment and platelet-rich fibrin application on mandibular impacted third molar tooth extraction. The study included a total of 60 patients with impacted mandibular third molar. Patients were evaluated in 4 randomly separated groups. In group 1, PRF was applied to the tooth socket. In group 2, PRF was applied to the tooth socket combined with Low Laser Treatment extraorally to the extraction area for three days within surgery day In group 3, Low Laser Treatment was applied to the extraorally to the extraction area for three days within surgery day. In group 4 (control group), tradional osteomy was made. The outcome variables were pain, swelling, the number of analgesics taken, and trismus. These variables were also assessed based on first, second, third, and seventh days following the operation. All of the 4 groups patients were prescribed an 875/125 mg amoxicillin/clavulanic acid tablet twice daily for five days.
Interventions
DIAGNOSTIC_TESTDiagnoses
All of the patients withstand a radiological examination, including panoramic radiography, and all were handled by the same surgeon and assistant.
PROCEDUREtraditional osteotomies
In all groups the flap incision was triangular in shape which avoids muscle involvement (Archer flap).
BIOLOGICALplatelet rich fibrin
Platelet rich fibrin (PRF), is an example and popular procedure for accelerate healing of soft and hard tissue because of the presence of various growth factors.a blood sample was taken without anticoagulant in 10 mL glass-coated plastic tubes that were immediately centrifuged (Elektro-mag M415P) at 3,000 rpm for 10 min (approximately 400 g) (13). The platelet-poor plasma that accumulated at the top of the tubes was discarded.PRF was dissected approximately 2 mm below its contact point with the red corpuscles situated beneath, to include any remaining platelets that may have localized below the junction between the PRF and red corpuscles.
Antibiotics are prescribed for the patients.
DEVICElow laser therapy, bicure laser
There are studies in the literature that low-energy lasers have positive effects on the biological and biochemical processes of wound healing. Acceleration of local circulation, increase in cell proliferation and collagen synthesis are among the various effects of laser application. B Cure Dental Pro Laser application will be applied to the patient for the first 3 days. Low dose laser application will be applied to the angulus area, covering the surgical area for 8 minutes. Before this laser procedure, the patient will be asked to fill out a pain scale. This pain scale and the number of analgesics used will be monitored for 3 days.
DRUGAnalgesic
Analgesics are prescribed for the patients.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Visual analogue scale (VAS) | Day 1 | It is a measurement instrument for subjective characteristics or attitudes that cannot be directly measured. |
| Trismus | Day 1 | Trismus by measuring the distance between the mesial incisal corners of the upper and lower right incisors during maximum mouth opening. |
| Swelling | Day 1 | measured using a flexible plastic measuring tape as described by Gabka and Matsumura by measuring the distance from the corner of the mouth to the attachment of the earlobe following the bulge of the cheek and the distance from the outer canthus of the eye to the angle of the mandible. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| the number of analgesic tablets | Day 1 |
