Description | Wisdom teeth are often removed for prophylactic reasons. One of the main reasons for the early removal of wisdom teeth is, for example, lack of space. As part of clinical studies, we are looking for adult persons or adolescents aged 16 and over who are recommended to have a prophylactic wisdom tooth extraction of at least 2 wisdom teeth. The removal of the wisdom teeth is carried out in a standardized manner. Immediately after the wisdom tooth extraction, an application with a study-specific material or technique is carried out. The effect of these materials/techniques on wound healing, mouth opening and postoperative complaints after wisdom tooth removal is being researched. Participation in the study and thus the removal of the wisdom teeth is not free of charge, but you will receive a discount on the treatment. |
