The Efficacy Of Adhesive Tissue Iceberg-Glue In Minimizing The Post Operative Bleeding After Surgical Removal Of Impacted Lower Third Molars (Randomized Clinical Trial Study)

Abstract

Abstract:

The efficacy of adhesive tissue Iceberg-Glue in minimizing the post-operative bleeding after surgical removal of impacted lower third molars (randomized clinical trial study)

background suturing has been the conventional method for approximating wound margins. However, suturing has many disadvantages leading to various alternative material closure option like tissue adhesive such as new generation of cyanoacrylate which has unique properties including faster tissue bonding capacity and curing in addition, its good tensile strength, rapid polymerizations, biocompatibility, immediate hemostasis, and of these properties lead us to focus on this technique in our study.

Purpose: evaluation on the efficacy of the adhesive tissue(iceberg-glue) in minimizing the post-operative bleeding after surgical removal of impacted lower third molars.

Materials and methods: a total of 19 patients with bilateral and symmetrical impacted lowers third molars were included in this randomized, split-mouth study.

Patients with any pre-existing pathology or systemic disease were excluded.

On one random side were surgically closure using silk suture (3-0) (group A), and using an adhesive tissue on the contralateral side (group B)

The comparison of the post-operative bleeding evaluation rated according to the (VAS) visual analogue scale from(3hours,6hours,9hours,12hours) post surgically.

Result Mann-Whitney U test was chosen to study the differences between two groups, the outcome reveals statistically significant differences between two groups in the (3hours,6hours,9hours) after surgery in adhesive tissue group where (p<0.05) where as there is no significant difference in (12 hours) after surgery between two groups (p>0.05)

Conclusion: these data suggest that the (iceberg-glue) adhesive tissue minimizing effectively post-surgical bleeding after surgical removal of lower third molars
