Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of aqua titan patch in postoperative sequelae after mandibular third molar surgery. Material and Methods: A total of 20 patients were selected and divided into two groups, Group A was evaluated by using Aqua titan patch with oral antibiotics and anti-inflammatory analgesics while Group B was only provided with antibiotics and anti-inflammatory analgesics. Results: There were total 20 subjects, with 4 males and 16 females. Pain was evaluated after surgical removal, where significant reduction was observed on 5 and 7th postoperative day in study group with p value 0.004 and 0.013, respectively. Reduction in swelling was observed to be statistically highly significant (p values = 0.000) in study group on 5 and 7th postoperative days. Beneficial results were obtained in study group where mouth opening was statistically significant with p value 0.002 on 5th and 0.049 on 7th postoperative day. For postoperative neurosensory deficit, mean values were constant and difference was found to be statistically insignificant with p value 0.13. Conclusion: Postoperative local application of aqua titan patch in study group provided beneficial effects in terms of reduction in pain, swelling and maximum mouth opening as compared to the control group.
