This is a randomized, controlled, double-blind, split-mouth clinical trial. A total of 16 people who meet the eligibility criteria will be selected. The research will be carried out through extraction
proceeding with the surgical procedures until the end of the sample number. A stratified randomization will be performed using an Excel table. Surgical procedures on participants in the control group

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| It is expected to find less pain, edema and trismus in the postoperative period of extraction of the lower third molar where the ozonated gel was applied. The examining researcher will measure the swelling and mouth opening of the participants on days 0 (before surgery), 1, 3 and 7 (postoperative), and will compile the pain questionnaires. After surgery, participants will also receive a printed sheet containing the VAS Pain Scale consisting of 10 cm straight lines. Each line represents a time of the day, pain will be measured every two hours, starting at 8:00h and ending at 00:00h. The times when the participant is sleeping will be disregarded. The participant will mark their pain level, with the beginning of the line equaling “no pain” and the end of the line meaning “unbearable pain”. The amount of medication administered will also be noted on this sheet. At each return, the participant will deliver the sheet described above to the examining researcher and will receive a new sheet to fill in, with a total of 4 sheets filled out per participant. The edema will be measured by the examining researcher with a flexible measuring tape, and the measurements (in centimeters) will be recorded between the labial commissure and the tragus, between the labial commissure and the labial angle and between the corner of the eye and the mandibular angle. The mouth opening will be measured with the aid of a digital caliper | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| It is expected that the patient administers a smaller amount of medication in the postoperative period of extraction of the lower third molar where the ozonized gel was applied. The patient will record each medication intake. For this, the number of drugs administered on days 0 (before surgery), 1, 3 and 7 (postoperative) will be counted | — |
