Evalution of the Effects of PRP and LLLT on Postoperative Complications and Wound Healing After Impacted Third Molar

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a preparation of autologous human platelet concentration enriched in a small amount of plasma produced by centrifuging a patient's own blood. It is applied to the extraction socket after the extraction of an impacted wisdom tooth.

Low-level laser therapy is a technology that has been used since the mid-1960s to treat a variety of conditions requiring healing stimulation, pain and inflammation relief, and restoration of function. A single 940 nm diode laser was applied intraorally for 120 seconds (BIOLASE) immediately after the extraction and suturing of an impacted wisdom tooth.
