Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  Low level diode laser therapy   Laser therapy will be initiated 48 hours post operatively with the following laser protocol and will be continued on 4th ,6th, 8th, 10th, 14th, 21st, and 28th day counting for 2 to 3 sessions per week for atleast 8-10 sessions. Interval of 48 hours will be maintained in between each session.it will be done externally on face and also intraorally on mandibular foramen site.

Individual Participant Data (IPD) Sharing Statement

Will individual participant data (IPD) be shared publicly (including data dictionaries)?  

Response - NO
Brief Summary
Modification(s)  
This is a randomized , observer blind study in which two groups of patients are recruited depending upon the treatment modality the patient is going to be subjected to be. Followed by that clinical nerve sensory testing will be performed at various intervals and outcomes will be recorded.
