“…An interesting observation in this group was the significant trismus decrease in the first postoperative day, which is similar to group B (oral route), fact which might be result of the higher concentration of dexamethasone obtained immediately at injury site. These results add more power to the concept that dexamethasone administered close to the surgical site is a valuable way to decrease edema and trismus 5,6,12,32 . Our results, regarding Levene and Shapiro-Wilks tests, have not shown statistically significant differences between groups with regard to postoperative pain, edema and trismus decrease after third molar extraction.…”
