“…Today, there is consensus that regaining pain free function after lower 3 rd molar surgery is an essential element, so Dx has been introduced due to its pure glucocorticoid effects, no mineralocorticoid effects, and the least effects on leukocyte chemotaxis. (7) Many studies, (8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13) reported submucosal, intraalveolar, intravenous, intramuscular and oral use of CS. Injection of CS into Pm is preferred in decreasing trismus, swelling, and pain at the operative site, reducing the postoperative discomfort, and confirm the effectiveness of locally administered CS in 3 rd molar surgery.…”

“…El tercer molar mandibular es el diente impactado más comúnmente encontrado en los seres humanos [1][2][3][4][5][6] y a menudo es tratado con una exodoncia quirúrgica, convirtiéndose así en una de las intervenciones más frecuentes en cirugía oral 1,[7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] . Se sabe que cada cirugía conlleva riesgos y que la exodoncia quirúrgica de terceros molares se relaciona a menudo con secuelas posquirúrgicas importantes 1,[7][8][9][10][11][12][13]15,16 . Esta exodoncia varía en dificultad y en el grado de trauma causado a los tejidos circundantes.…”

“…Esta exodoncia varía en dificultad y en el grado de trauma causado a los tejidos circundantes. Por ello se requiere un conocimiento confiable de la profundidad y angulación de estas piezas dentales y su relación con las estructuras vitales circundantes, así como el manejo profesional de las complicaciones quirúrgicas asociadas 1,[7][8][9]11,13,15,17 .…”
