New sponge stops bleeding faster after wisdom tooth extraction
NCT ID NCT07638930
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a new dental sponge called Colibricare (Coli-sorb®) in 124 patients having their wisdom teeth removed. The sponge was compared to a standard gauze and a commercial sponge. Researchers measured how quickly bleeding stopped, pain levels, swelling, and wound healing over six weeks. The goal was to see if the new sponge works better for controlling bleeding and easing discomfort after oral surgery.
