Abstract |
A double blind controlled randomised trial suggested that irrigation of third molar sockets with bupivacaine 0.75% produces significant reduction in pain scored on the first post-operative morning (p less than 0.01). However, this technique produces no significant reduction in opiate or oral analgesic consumption.
