ASSESSMENT OF COMPLICATIONS OCCURRING IN PATIENTS UNDERGOING ORTHODONTIC EXTRACTION OF MAXILLARY FIRST PREMOLARS USING ABSORBABLE COLLAGEN SPONGES IN EXTRACTION SOCKETS
Journal Title: Journal of Advanced Medical and Dental Sciences Research - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 12
Abstract
Background: Angle favored non-extraction orthodontic treatment based on the concept of the occlusion line, in early eighteenth century. Special post-operative care is taken by surgeons while doing extractions to avoid complications. Despite these efforts, immediate postoperative sequelae such as bleeding, pain, swelling, and trismus often occur. Hence; we conducted the present study to assess the complication rates after using absorbable type-I collagen sponges in extraction sockets of patients undergoing orthodontic maxillary first premolar extractions. Materials & methods: In the present study we analyzed postoperative complications after using type-I collagen sponges following orthodontic extractions of maxillary first premolars. A total of 100 patients were included and dental extractions were performed followed by placement of type-I collagen plugs into the extraction sockets before wound closure. Surgical complications post-operative was analyzed and was assessed by SPSS software. Results: Significant results were obtained while comparing complications in patients undergoing surgical and non-surgical extractions. Conclusion: Complications could be minimized following topical application of type-I collagen sponges in the extraction sockets
