Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Summary

This trial compares two ways of giving patients information before and after wisdom tooth removal: a digital avatar versus a nurse providing oral and written instructions. Researchers want to see if the avatar can boost patient confidence in the information they receive. Adults aged 18 to 80 with an impacted lower wisdom tooth scheduled for removal can take part. The study also looks for factors that might slow recovery.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Avatar-assisted pre- and post-operative information
What this could lead to
If it works, digital avatars could replace or supplement nurse-led education, making patient preparation more consistent and accessible.
What could go wrong
The trial is small and early, and patient confidence may depend more on personal interaction than on the delivery method.
