| Background: Mandibular third molar extraction, a common oral and maxillofacial surgery procedure, can lead to complications like pain, swelling, bleeding, limited mouth opening, and reduced quality of life. Purpose: The study's purpose was to see how cryotherapy and Kinesiotaping affected pain and trismus after third molar extraction procedures. Materials and Methods: The study involved 45 individuals aged 20-45 with discomfort and trismus, divided into three groups: Group A received cryotherapy and Kinesio-tape, Group B received Kinesio-tape, and Group C received cryotherapy in addition to traditional medical care. Results: After treatment, group A showed a significant decrease in VAS and an increase in maximal mouth opening compared to groups B and C. Group B also experienced a decrease in VAS and an increase in maximal mouth opening. Conclusion: Kinesio tape and cryotherapy had a positive effect on pain and trismus | ||||
