Ozone Oil-based Gel and CHX Gel After Lower Third Molar Removal

Overall, 100 patients of both genders were included in the study, with indication of surgical extraction of lower third molar, positioned similarly after being clinically and radiographically checked by X-ray and orthopantomography. Each patient was subjected to both groups in separate sessions: treated with ozone gas and with CHX gel 1%. Data on pain intensity, number of taken analgesics- painkillers, and dry socket were recorded for 48 h and at Day 7
