Simple injection eases pain after wisdom tooth surgery

NCT ID NCT07258498

Summary

This study tested whether a simple steroid injection given during wisdom tooth removal surgery could help patients recover faster. Researchers compared a dexamethasone injection to a placebo (saltwater) injection in 70 adults to see which better reduced post-surgery pain, facial swelling, and difficulty opening the mouth. The goal was to find a convenient way to minimize discomfort so patients could return to their daily activities sooner.
