This clinical study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of Concentrated Growth Factor (CGF)-based sticky bone in enhancing bone healing after surgical removal of impacted mandibular third molars. Surgical extraction of impacted lower third molars is one of the most common procedures in oral and maxillofacial surgery and is often associated with postoperative complications such as pain, swelling, delayed healing, and bone defects within the extraction socket. CGF is an autologous platelet concentrate derived from the patient's venous blood through a specific centrifugation process. It contains a high concentration of growth factors that play a key role in angiogenesis, tissue regeneration, and bone formation. When combined with particulate bone graft material, CGF forms a cohesive structure known as "sticky bone," which can provide both biological stimulation and structural support for bone regeneration. In this study, CGF-based sticky bone will be placed into the fresh extraction socket immediately after surgical removal of the impacted mandibular third molar. Participants will be followed clinically and radiographically over a defined postoperative period. Clinical parameters such as pain intensity, soft tissue healing, and postoperative complications will be assessed, while radiographic analysis will be used to evaluate bone density and bone regeneration within the extraction site. The findings of this study may contribute to improving regenerative techniques in oral and maxillofacial surgery and provide evidence regarding the potential benefits of CGF-based sticky bone in enhancing postoperative healing and bone regeneration following third molar extraction.

Bone Density
Timeframe: A Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scan is taken immediately after the surgical procedure to document the initial state of the extraction site packed with the CGF Based Sticky Bone. Final Assessment: A follow-up CBCT scan is performed 3 months post-o
Post Operative Pain
Timeframe: The time frame for the secondary outcome of Postoperative Pain consists of three specific measurement points during the first week after surgery: 1 day post-operatively 3 days post-operatively 7 days post-operatively
