The objective of the research was to investigate the anti-inflammatory and wound-healing effect of a new antiseptic rinsing including extracts of the horsetail and grape seeds and chlorhexidine applied in complex of therapeutic prophylactic measures after removal of the third lower molar.

Having based on the research results it was concluded that application of the antiseptic rinsing in the postoperative period prevents development of alveolitis. The higher effect was obtained in mouth rinsing with a mixture including plant preparations in combination with a low concentration of chlorhexidine than chlorhexidine only in high concentration.
