简要总结
Thirty-eight patients were randomly divided into 2 groups; the intraosseous injection group of dexamethasone (4 mg) and the submucosal injection group. All surgeries were performed by one surgeon.
Postoperative pain was evaluated by visual analog scale score immediately after surgery and on postoperative days 1, 3, and 7.
Swelling (determined using two linear measurements) were assessed just before the surgery and on postoperative days 1, 3, and 7 by using a digital vernier caliper.
Early healing of periodontal soft tissue wound was assessed by using Early Wound Healing Score (EHS) which composed of 3 parameters: clinical signs of re-epithelization (CSR), clinical signs of hemostasis (CSH), and clinical signs of inflammation (CSI) and were assessed on postoperative days 1, 7, and 14. Mouth opening (determined by measurement of the maximum inter-incisal distance) were assessed just before the surgery and on postoperative days 1, 3, and 7 by using a digital vernier caliper.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in mouth opening
时间窗: baseline, 1st, 3rd, 7th days
determined by measurement of the maximum inter-incisal distance assessed by using a digital vernier caliper
change in swelling
时间窗: 1st, 3rd, 14th days
assessed by measuring two linear references (horizontal and vertical) with digital vernier caliper 1. Horizontal reference between the corner of the mouth and the tragus of the ear. 2. Vertical reference between the lateral canthus and the angle of the mandible.
change in pain scores
时间窗: 1st, 3rd, 7th days
Pain will be assessed by using a visual analog scale (VAS) (13) immediately after surgery and on postoperative days 1, 3, and 7.
次要结局
- change in early healing of periodontal soft tissue wound(1st, 7th, 14th days)
