Arm Title

Chlorhexidine mouthwash with boric acid (0.1%)

Arm Description

Due to its antibacterial properties, boric acid is effective on gram (+) and gram (-) microorganisms such as candida albicans, streptococcus mutans, staphylococcus aureus, enterococcus faecalis, enterococcus faesium, escherichia coli, klebsiella pneumonia and pseudomonas aeruginosa. With these features, it is used in periodontology, endodontics and restorative therapy as a antiseptic.

Intervention Name(s)

Chlorhexidine mouthwash

Intervention Description

After anesthesia, the horizontal incision was made with no. 15 scalpel blade and a full thickness mucoperiosteal flap was raised. In all surgical procedures, bone removal and/or tooth sectioning were performed under abundant irrigation. Following the extraction, granulation tissues were removed, and post extraction cavity was irrigated with sterile 0.9% saline solution. After the bleeding was controlled, the mucoperiosteal flap was repositioned by 3.0 silk sutures. The patients were postoperatively prescribed paracetamol (Parol® 500 mg, Atabay Chemical Industry, Istanbul, Turkey) to use when required with a maximum of 4 doses per day. Patients were instructed to maintain a soft diet, and refrain from mouth washing, brushing and flossing during the first 24 hour. They were also instructed to rinse their mouth with 15 ml of mouthwash for 30 seconds, 3 times a day, and continue until the 7th postoperative day.
