| Summary: | Aims: To compare vital parameters; operator’s comfort; and
patient’s satisfaction during impacted third molar removal under
local anaesthesia, with or without sedative agents.
Materials and Methods: Ninety patients undergoing elective
third molar surgery were randomly divided into three groups of
30 each: Group A received propofol along with local anaesthesia;
Group B received midazolam along with local anaesthesia
and Group C received local anaesthesia alone. After the local
anaesthesia, with or without sedative agents, the impacted third
molars were removed in Operation Theater.
Results: Group A clearly showed advantages over Group B & C
on all the parameters that we have selected.
Conclusion: Even though the cost of propofol is high, suitable
operating conditions, faster onset of sedation, rapid recovery,
and minimal side effects support the use of this drug for
conscious sedation for third molar surgery. |
