Evaluation of influencing factors (age, sex, number of teeth, type and quality of teeth) on the development of dry socket (alveolar osteitis) after tooth pull (clinical study)

A dry socket (alveolar osteitis) is a painful dental condition that sometimes happens after you have a permanent adult tooth pulled. Dry socket is the most common complication following tooth pull, such as the removal of third molars (wisdom teeth). Over-the-counter medications alone won't be enough to treat dry socket pain. Your dentist or oral surgeon can offer treatments to relieve your pain. In this study, we investigated the influential factors (age, sex, number of teeth, type, and quality of teeth) on the formation of the dry socket after tooth pull (as a clinical study) and analyzed each of the factors. This research was conducted in the Russian federation in 2018-2020 as a case study
