Brief Summary   This study evaluates postoperative sequelae following surgical removal of impacted mandibular third molars using Gelfoam impregnated with concentrated growth factors, vitamin C, and dexamethasone placed in the extraction socket. Concentrated growth factors promote wound healing and tissue regeneration, vitamin C enhances collagen synthesis and provides antioxidant support, while dexamethasone helps in controlling postoperative inflammation. Postoperative pain, facial swelling, and trismus were assessed at predetermined intervals to evaluate clinical outcomes. The study aims to determine the effectiveness of this combined local application in reducing postoperative complications and improving patient recovery and comfort following impacted third molar surgery.
