Prevention of postoperative contracture of the masticatory muscles using a multifunctional gnathic device when removing retinated teeth

Full rehabilitation of patients after atypical extraction of wisdom teeth is not among the priority issues in dentistry, however, the duration and severity of postoperative inflammatory contracture of the masticatory muscles significantly affects the duration of the postoperative period, increasing the patient’s period of disability. Numerous studies indicate the advisability of local effects on tissues in order to improve blood and lymph circulation in the area of inflammation, which enhances the exchange of intercellular fluid and relaxes the masticatory muscles. A method of adaptive myogymnastics for early rehabilitation of patients is proposed and proved the effectiveness of its use.
