Materials and Methods Electronic databases were searched for randomized controlled trials. The primary outcome variables included alveolar osteitis (AO) surgical wound infection. extracted data analyzed using meta-analytical program with random-effect model. Number needed to treat (NnT) was calculated. Results A total 2,932 patients 16 reported AO as an outcome. occurred 84 1,350 treatment group, frequency 6.2%; 228 1,582 control 14.4%.
