According to recent research, investigators have found out that the novel Inflammatory Proliferative Remodeling (IPR) Scale is a promising tool for the effective evaluation of the wound healing process following wisdom tooth extractions.
The study is published in the International Dental Journal.
The Inflammatory Proliferative Remodeling (IPR) Wound Healing Scale was developed to assist surgeons in monitoring postoperative oral mucosal wound healing. The scale is divided into three subscales corresponding to the three phases of wound healing, and each is rated at the appropriate time point during follow-up, yielding three subscale scores and a total score.
