This study tested whether adding a steroid to the numbing medicine used during wisdom tooth removal can lessen pain, swelling, and jaw stiffness afterward. Twenty-five adults with similar impacted wisdom teeth on both sides of their jaw participated. Each person received the stan…

This study compared two types of archwires used in braces: conventional nickel-titanium and copper-nickel-titanium. The goal was to see which wire straightens teeth more efficiently and causes less pain, measured using a pain scale and a biomarker called prostaglandin E2. Thirty …
