Study Overview
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of concentrated growth factor (CGF) on pain after bilateral impacted third molar surgery and to determine its contribution to the healing process.
The main question it aims to answer is:
Is CGF effective on reducing the pain in impacted third molar surgery? Researchers compare the pain on the CGF-applied and CGF free sides after impacted third molar surgery. Postoperative pain is assessed using the Visual Analogue Scale. TThe postoperative outcomes including pain are clinically assessed at different-time intervals (1-7 days).

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Postoperative pain on CGF-applied and CGF free sides in bilateral impacted third molar surgery
Time Frame: The postoperative outcomes including pain are clinically assessed at different-time intervals (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th days).
The primary outcome measure is postoperative pain on CGF-applied and CGF free sides in bilateral impacted third molar surgery. Postoperative pain is assessed using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). Patients are asked to mark the pain they felt on the scale (10 cm long line) on the (1-7) days after the operation. The end of the line indicates unbearable pain, the beginning indicates no pain.
Secondary Outcomes
No secondary outcomes reported
