Protocol summary

Study aim
Evaluating the Effect of Luekocyte & Platelet-Rich Fibrin (L-PRF) on Clinical Wound Healing after Extraction of Third Mandibular Molars
Design
A randomized clinical trial with control group,split-mouth, triple blinded, design of 30 patients,
Settings and conduct
30 patients that have entry criteria were selected from patients admitted to Zahedan Dental faculty.Each patient is considered as their own control, so that after the removal of the third molar tooth by the surgeon, one of the left or right dental sockets is randomly assigned to the L-PRF intervention group and the opposite side to the control group without L-PRF by another doctor. subsequent patient visits are also conducted through third instructor.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
18 TO 35 Years Old Patients that have Third Mandibular Molar in Each Side
Intervention groups
In each patient,After extraction of both sides, one extraction socket is randomly treated with L-PRF, while the contralateral socket is left to heal naturally without intervention
Main outcome variables
pain intensity (measured via Visual Analog Scale), incidence of sudden pain, facial swelling (measured by tragus- commissure and tragus-pogonion distances), wound dehiscence, alveolar osteitis, postoperative infection, bleeding ,and soft tissue healing quality assessed by the Landry index

Sample size
Target sample size: 30
More than 1 sample in each individual
Number of samples in each individual: 2
Each patient is considered as their own control, so that after the removal of the third molar tooth by the surgeon, one of the left or right dental sockets is randomly assigned to the L-PRF intervention group and the opposite side to the control group without L-PRF by another doctor.
Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
wax-sealed envelope are used.Envelops containing name Left or Right are prepared randomly.After the third molar removed by surgeon, the pockets are opened by surgical assistant, and according to this, the assistant inserts the L-PRF into desired cavity. One side is selected as the Intervention group, and the other side is only sutured as Control group
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Triple blinded
Blinding description
During surgery,after the surgeon extract the wisdom teeth from both sides, they leave the operating room and the surgical assistant,based on randomly opened envelope, place the L-PRF inside one of the sockets and sutures each socket with same suture. These processes are carried out by a surgeon and surgical assistant, neither of whom participates in data analysis or evaluation stages.
