Brief summary

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.

Interventions

PROCEDURETooth extraction

A regular closed tooth extraction was performed with the different devices from each arm.

DEVICEBenex

Benex was used to perform the intervention.

DEVICEPhysics Forceps

Physics forceps were used to perform the intervention.

DEVICEConventional Extraction Forceps

Conventional Extraction Forceps were used to perform the intervention.

Inclusion criteria

* Patients with teeth indicated for closed extraction * Teeth with at least 1mm of tissue above the bone level * Patients without contraindications for surgical intervention (ASA 1 or 2) * Patients with good oral hygiene

Exclusion criteria

* Patients with severe systemic conditions or immunosuppression * Teeth with mobility greater than Grade 1 * Teeth indicated for open surgical extraction * Patients with acute odontogenic infections * Drug or alcohol abuse * Patients with psychiatric conditions * Patients on anticoagulant or antiaggregant drugs refusing to undergo prior tests and preparation for tooth extraction * Patients on chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or oral bisphosphonate intake

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Extraction successFrom the beginning of the extraction to the completion of the procedureThe scale suggested by Choi was used to assess each of the extraction systems. Scored from 1 to 5. Higher is better.
Alveolar bone buccal cortical plate preservationFrom the beginning of the extraction to the completion of the procedureThe difference between the height of the alveolar bone buccal cortical plate is measured before and after the tooth extraction. Scored in milimeters missing. Lower is better.
VAS pain score0, 1, 3, 7 dayPatients were asked to rate their pain experience on a visual analog scale (VAS). Measured in centimeters on 10cm line. Lower is better.
Early wound healing3, 7, 10 dayLandry's early wound healing index was used to evaluated the extraction healing process. Scores from 1 to 5. Higher is better.
