ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT Abstract Purpose: The surgical removal of mandibular third molars is frequently accompanied by significant post-surgical sequelae, and different protocols have been described to improve such adverse events. The aim of this study was to investigate the performance of piezosurgery

compared with traditional rotating instruments during mandibular third molar removal.

Methods: A single-centre, randomized, split-mouth study was performed using a consecutive series of unrelated healthy patients, attending the Oral Surgery Unit of the University of Turin,

for surgical removal of bilateral mandibular third molar teeth. Each patient was treated, at the same appointment, using bur removal on one side of the mandible and a piezoelectric device

on the contralateral side. The primary outcomes reported were post-operative pain, objective orofacial swelling and the duration of surgical time; secondary outcomes were sex, age and possible adverse events. Anova or paired t-test were used as appropriate to test any significant differences at baseline according to each treatment subgroups and categorical variables were

Results: The study sample consisted of 100 otherwise healthy patients. The mean pain evaluation reported by patients who underwent surgery with the piezosurgery was significantly
