dc.description.abstractObjectives: Extracting impacted third molar teeth is one of the most common procedures in maxillofacial surgery. After these operations, symptoms such as trismus, pain, and swelling are seen, negatively affecting patient comfort and defined as postoperative morbidities. The surgeon's experience is one of the considerable factors affecting postoperative morbidity. Methods: With our research, we extracted the mandibular impacted molar teeth of 100 patients by oral, teeth, and maxillofacial surgeons and oral and maxillofacial surgery assistants(research assistant). We recorded all patients' pain, swelling, and maximum incisal opening measurements three times: preoperative, postoperative second day, and seventh postoperative day. We determined the operation times by recording the time between the first incision and the last suture. Results: When we compared oral and maxillofacial surgeons and oral and maxillofacial surgery assistants (research assistant), the operating time of the surgeon was shorter (p < 0.001). When we evaluated the facial swelling on the postoperative second and seventh days, we found that the patients operated on by the surgeon had less swelling (p < 0.001, p:0.005). In our postoperative second-day measurement, the oral openness of the patients operated by the surgeon was greater (p:0.035). Conclusion: Performing the impacted third molar operations by an oral and maxillofacial surgeon reduces postoperative morbidity.
