First seen Jan 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 16, 2026 · Updated 15 times
Summary
This study tested whether Kinesio Tape, a sticky tape placed on the skin, works as well as the steroid drug dexamethasone for reducing pain, swelling, and trouble opening the mouth after wisdom tooth removal. Thirty adults who had a lower wisdom tooth taken out were followed for one week. The goal was to see if the tape could be a safe, side-effect-free option for recovery.
