Protocol summary

Study aim
The effectiveness of intramuscular v/s submucosal injection of dexamethasone on third molar surgery complications.
Design
Forty-four patients with mesioangular mandibular impacted third molar , without any specific systemic conditions, are randomly divided into 2 groups based on four random blocks.
Settings and conduct
This research is conducted in the department of surgery at the College of International Campus.
