Serrapeptase reduces cheek swelling and pain after surgical extraction.
In a 2008 study in the International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, researchers looked at the ability of serrapeptase to reduce postoperative swelling and pain following surgical removal of the third molar.
After surgery, patients received either serrapeptase OR a placebo AND 1000mg paracetamol.
The researchers found that there was significant reduction in cheek swelling and pain in the serrapeptase treated group after 2, 3 and 7 days after the surgery.
