Mouthwash and wisdom tooth extraction recovery
Treatments studied
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study compares different mouthwashes to see which one helps healing after wisdom tooth surgery. If you have a lower wisdom tooth that is impacted (stuck) and need it removed with some bone cutting, you may qualify.

This study compares a tea tree oil mouthwash and a standard chlorhexidine mouthwash to see which helps better after wisdom tooth removal. It may help you heal faster and with less discomfort.
This trial tests if injecting hyaluronic acid into the sockets after wisdom tooth removal helps bone heal faster. It may be an option if you need both lower wisdom teeth removed and are generally healthy.
This trial tests whether a mouthwash with hypochlorous acid can help healing after impacted wisdom tooth removal. It may reduce discomfort and speed recovery.
This trial tests if a gel containing chlorhexidine (an antiseptic) and hyaluronic acid (a moisture-retaining substance) helps your gums heal better after having a lower wisdom tooth removed. It's for people whose wisdom tooth is only partly through the gum, so the wound can't be fully stitched closed.
This trial tests whether taking special enzyme supplements (trypsin, chymotrypsin, and serratia peptidase) after impacted wisdom tooth removal can help you heal faster and feel better.
This trial tests whether using saline (salt water) at different temperatures after wisdom tooth surgery helps with healing and pain. It could help you recover more comfortably.
