Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Atraumatic extraction of maxillary premolar teeth (on the Right, left side) was done; Subsequently, the patients were randomly divided into two equal groups: A group (Extraction + filled with a Simvastatin solution impregnated gelatin sponge) and B group (Extraction + without Simvastatin solution impregnated gelatin sponge), were placed in one of the sockets; the pain level is recorded according to the VAS scores at the intervals of before treatments, also Postoperative analog pain scores were assessed in 30 minutes, 6 hours, 12 hours and 24 hours.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The method of procedure was performed by the same surgeon under local anesthesia (Lidocaine 2% with epinephrine 1:100,000, made by Darou Pakhsh Pharmaceutical Co; Tehran-Iran) to avoid bias. All two first premolars were extracted carefully, have used periotome as a means of atraumatic extraction that facilitated the removal of teeth with minimum damage to the surrounding alveolar bone, teeth to be extracted should have minimum periapical changes radiographically; with decreasing soft tissue reflection; the socket was tan gently irrigated with normal saline and hemostasis was achieved. It must be noted that A group (Extraction + Simvastatin filled with Simvastatin (Poursina Pharmaceutical Co. Tehran-Iran) solution impregnated gelatin sponge (Maquira Industry Dental Products S.A. Brazil) and B group (Extraction + without Simvastatin solution impregnated gelatin sponge), was placed in one of the sockets.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

This study is a Double-blind, Randomized, Parallel-group, split-mouth.

Primary Study Purpose

TREATMENT

Blinding Strategy

SINGLE

Participants

This event was a double-blind study (neither the patients nor the clinicians were aware of the rinsing solution used). Consequently, all periods of treatment, clinical parameters were recorded by an examiner who was blinded to the kind of medication received by the subjects while another clinician gave treatment.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

A (Simavastatin 10 mg with gelatin sponge graft)

A group: After atraumatic extraction, filled the tooth socket with Simvastatin10 mg solution impregnated gelatin sponge.
