Summary

This study tested whether a hypochlorous acid mouthwash works as well as the standard chlorhexidine mouthwash for reducing pain, swelling, and jaw stiffness after impacted wisdom tooth removal. 42 healthy adults with similar wisdom teeth on both sides of the mouth participated. Each person used one mouthwash on one side and the other mouthwash on the other side, and recovery was tracked for a week.
