PATIENT INFORMATION SHEET Participants are invited to take part in a clinical study involving surgical removal of an impacted lower wisdom tooth. Participation in this study is entirely voluntary. The purpose of this study is to observe the healing process after wisdom tooth removal and to assess whether the use of elastic therapeutic tape placed on the skin (kinesiotaping) may support recovery.
