Brief summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn which drug amongst Amoxicillin, Clindamycin and Azithromycin single dose works better in reducing post-surgical complications in Participants getting lower wisdom teeth pulled. The main question it aims to answer is: • Which single dose drug lowers the post-surgical complications in participants of this study? Researcher will compare three single dose drugs (the administration of the complete amount of an antibiotic medication in one single administration to cure or prevent an infection). Participants will: * Take provided drug one hour before the treatment * Visit the OPD for Reading measurements same day before the surgery, same day after the surgery and third day after the surgery.

Detailed description

In this Clinical Trial, Principal Investigator is comparing three single dose antibiotic drugs by comparing post-operative outcomes of Lower third molar extraction (Wisdom Tooth getting pulled). After checking for Participant's eligibility. Participants will be asked for their consent to be part of research and then Initial Baseline reading will be measured and then they will be given medication and will be asked to take it and wait for an hour. After Surgery, once participant is calmed down Investigators will wait for 25-30mins and will record 2nd set of readings to check the effect of surgery on pain, mouth opening, bleeding. After Surgery day 3 participant will be called for follow-up that's when third set of readings will be measured. Post Data Collection Data Analysis will be done using SPSS 21
