Summary

Surgical extraction of impacted third molar is the most common surgical procedure performed in oral and maxillofacial surgery. The immediate post operative complications after 3rd molar surgery are pain, swelling and trismus while delayed post operative complications are mostly seen on the distal surface of second molar due to distal bone loss which include prolonged sensitivity due to increased periodontal pocket depth, gingival recession and root exposure.

When PRF clot is given in wound, it causes alterations of the cellular ratios in the wound blood clot, leading to replacement of blood cells with Platelets and growth factors stimulating all phases of healing which will improve the immidiate and delayed post operative complications The purpose of present study is to compare the clinical outcomes in the treatment of senstivity and periodontal pockets at the distal aspect of second molar following surgical extraction of impacted third molar using PRF or Blood clot alone.
