The Effect of Different Types of Mouthwash on Extraction Sockets' Healing
Jordan100 participantsStarted 2025-08-10
Plain-language summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the effect of four different types of mouthwash on socket healing after surgical extractions in male or female patients aged 18 years and older who have a unilateral impacted mandibular third molar indicated for extraction. The main questions it aims to answer are:
The effect of Bone Bioactive Liquid (BBL) mouthwash, Hyaluronic Acid (HA) mouthwash, the Chlorhexidine digluconate (CHX) mouthwash and Warm Saline Mouth Rinse (WSMR) on socket healing after surgical extractions.
The effect of BBL mouthwash, HA mouthwash, the CHX mouthwash and WSMR on patient related factors and their quality of life.
Recruited Participants will be randomized into four intervention groups:
1. First group will receive BBL mouthwash.
2. The second group will receive CHX mouthwash.
3. The third group will be prescribed HA mouthwash.
4. The fourth group will receive Warm Saline Mouth Rinse.

* Patients who have undergone radiotherapy in the head and neck region, chemotherapy or systemic long-term corticosteroid treatment.
* Patients receiving medications known to induce gingival hyperplasia; anticonvulsant (phenytoin), immunosuppressant (cyclosporine A), and various calcium channel blockers (nifedipine, verapamil, diltiazem).
* Patients who have taken systemic antibiotics less than 3 months prior to baseline.
* Presence of uncontrolled diabetes, severe nutritional deficiencies and endocrine disturbances.
* Presence of immune deficiency or any immune disease.
* Intravenous bisphosphonates or Oral bisphosphonate intake for more than 3 years.

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
