Summary

The literature is rich in studies that explore the type and frequency of oral abnormalities in transplanted recipients, but it is scarce in studies that provide scientific evidence on the risk of complications after invasive interventions on those patients. Within this context, the aim of our study is to evaluate the post-exodontic socket healing in renal transplant recipients compared to a control group and see if some indicators in the population of transplanted people, such complete blood count, serum concentration of immunosuppressive drugs, can help to provide for the host response face a invasive procedures. Therefore, 45 kidney transplant recipients over six months and at least 45 healthy non immunosuppressed adults will be submitted to a maximum of 4 simple dental extractions, always by the same surgeon. Laboratory tests will be performed preoperatively and include: blood count and coagulation - for both groups - and urea, creatinine and serum levels of immunosuppressive drug - only for the study group. Researchers will evaluate the patient in the postoperative 3, 7, 21, and 60 days. The presence, or absence, of post-operative complication and delayed, or not, socket healing will be the results of interest in this study and will be compared between the groups. The data will be evaluated by Pearson's chi-square, Fisher's exact test, Mann-Whitney test, student's T-test and binomial test.
