Evaluation of the Efficacy of Simvastatin in Bone Regeneration after Surgical Removal of Bilaterally Impacted Third Molars—A Split-Mouth Randomized Clinical Trial

Purpose: Simvastatin has been reported to promote osteoblastic activity, inhibit osteoclastic activity, and support osteoblast differentiation induced by bone morphogenetic protein. This split-mouth randomized clinical trial evaluated the effect of local application of simvastatin (10 mg) on bone re...
