简要总结
Brief summary
The goal of this study is to compare the effects of advanced platelet rich fibrin and enamel matrix derivative placed in the extraction alveoli of patients who had surgical removal of mandibular wisdom teeth. The questions it aims to answer/evaluate are:
- postoperative pain, swelling, trismus, early wound healing using soft tissue healing index
- level of early local inflammatory response by measuring levels of inflammatory mediators in wound exudate
- degree of wound healing by measuring levels of early wound healing mediators in wound exudate
- incidence of alveolar osteitis and delayed infection
- levels of probing depth, clinical attachment loss, gingival margin level, bleeding on probing, gingival index, plaque index of the second mandibular molar 3 months after surgery
Participants of the study will be asked:
- for their preoperative clinical measurements (swelling, trismus, periodontal parameters) to be taken by the principal investigator
- to provide 20 ml of venous blood if necessary
- to preoperatively provide gingival crevicular fluid in the region of distal surface of the second mandibular molar and postoperatively wound exudate
- to note the number of painkiller pills taken after surgery and pain levels in different time points
- to come to regular checkups in which clinical measuring of postoperative swelling, trismus levels and periodontal parameters will be performed
详细描述
Surgical removal of impacted mandibular wisdom teeth is often related to the occurrence of postoperative pain, swelling, trismus and sometimes to the development of complications such as alveolar osteitis, delayed infection and formation of periodontal pocket on the distal surface of the second molar. In order to reduce postoperative discomfort and complications, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and antibiotics are being routinely prescribed.
Placement of autologous materials and commercially available products in the extraction alveoli, in order to minimize postoperative pain, swelling, trismus and complications, is a therapy option that is discussed in literature.
Platelet rich fibrin (PRF) is an autologous fibrin derived from patient's venous blood rich in platelets, leucocytes, growth factors and cytokines. Advanced PRF (APRF) is a variant of PRF which is produced by smaller centrifugation speed and smaller relative centrifugal force for a longer time period in comparison to the other types of PRF clots. APRF contains leucocytes, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), transforming growth factor β (TGF-β), interleukin -1β (IL1β) and interleukin-6 (IL6).
Local application of APRF in the extraction alveolus after surgical removal of impacted mandibular wisdom teeth has shown positive effects such as lesser postoperative pain, better soft tissue healing and lower incidence of alveolar osteitis and delayed infection.
In vitro studies have shown that PRF contains significant amounts of VEGF, TGF-β, IL1β, IL6. In vitro study also showed that PRF induces polymerization of M1 proinflammatory macrophages to M2 anti-inflammatory macrophages. M2 macrophages produce specialized pro-resolving lipid mediators which are important for resolution phase of inflammatory process and wound healing. Maresin 1 (MaR1), specialized pro-resolving lipid mediator, has shown an important role in inducing faster soft tissue and bone healing and therefore the presence of this mediator may be relevant to indicate the course of postoperative wound healing. Taking into consideration the data from clinical and in vitro studies, it would be beneficial to determine on a clinical model such as surgical removal of impacted mandibular wisdom teeth levels of VEGF, TGF-β, IL1β, IL6 and MaR1 after placing APRF into the extraction alveolus in comparison to the standard surgical removal of impacted mandibular wisdom teeth and compare those levels with clinical parameters of postoperative course.

结局指标
主要结局
Evaluation of postoperative swelling
时间窗: 7 days after surgery
Postoperative swelling will be evaluated by measuring distances tragus- oral commissure and outer eye canthus-angle of the mandible at the side of the extraction by using soft tape, expressed in millimeters.
Evaluation of preoperative maximal inter-incisor distance
时间窗: 1 hour preoperatively
Maximal inter-incisor distance at baseline will be measured by means of a soft tape, and expressed in millimeters (mm).
Relative gene expression of inflammatory and wound healing mediators in gingival crevicular fluid of the distal sulcus of the second mandibular molar preoperatively
时间窗: 1 hour preoperatively
To measure the relative gene expression of VEGF, TGF-β1, IL-6, IL-1β in samples of gingival crevicular fluid before surgical removal of impacted mandibular wisdom teeth.
Relative gene expression of inflammatory and wound healing mediators in wound exudate after surgical removal of impacted mandibular wisdom teeth
时间窗: 7 days postoperatively
To measure the relative gene expression of VEGF, TGF-β1, IL-6, IL-1β in samples of wound exudate after surgical removal of impacted mandibular wisdom teeth.
Evaluation of soft tissue healing using Landry healing index
时间窗: 7 days after surgery
Independent researcher will evaluate soft tissue healing by marking the number in front of the given description: 1. Very poor- tissue color: more than 50% of gingivae red Response to palpation: bleeding Granulation tissue: present Incision margin: not epithelialised, with loss of epithelium beyond margins Suppuration: present; 2. Poor- Tissue color: more than 50% of gingivae red Response to palpation: bleeding Granulation tissue: present Incision margin: not epitheliased with connective tissue exposed. 3. Good- Tissue color: less than 50% of gingivae red Response to palpation: no bleeding Granulation tissue: none Incision margin: no connective tissue exposed 4. Very good- Tissue color: less than 25% of gingivae red Response to palpation: no bleeding Granulation tissue: none Incision margin: no connective tissue exposed 5. Excellent-Tissue color: all gingivae pink Response to palpation:no bleeding Granulation tissue:none; Incision margin:no connective tissue exposed
Evaluation of postoperative pain on visual analog scale
时间窗: 72 hours- 7 days after surgery
Pain will be measured on a 10-cm long visual analog scale (VAS), where 0 means no pain at all, and 10 represent the greatest pain patients have ever felt. Higher scores on a scale mean worse outcome.
