Author Response

Dear reviewer thank you very much to have revised our case series.

 

It means a lot for me and I tried as much as possible to revise the paper according to your precious advices. We reported the inclusion/exclusion criteria, even if it is a case series and also the statistical analysis paragraph improved. We explored the statistical variable of follow-up and complication occurred in table 2. Improve statistical tests and explore more viariables and associations. I talked about the several limitation of the paper.

 

We completed the sentence "In a total of 15 cases out of 130, the roots had a" and corrected other senteces in results and discussion.

 

 

 

 

Best regards,

Reviewer 2 Report

Your paper is a great contribution, useful for the students of post-graduate program in oral surgery.

The research is well carried out.

Regarding antibiotic therapy protocol, it would be useful to cite guidelines and some review, like the following:

Cervino, G.; Cicciù, M.; Biondi, A.; Bocchieri, S.; Herford, A.S.; Laino, L.; Fiorillo, L. Antibiotic Prophylaxis on Third Molar Extraction: Systematic Review of Recent Data. Antibiotics 2019, 8, 53.

in order to better clarify this aspect.

Could you add other clinical tips and implications? they are wothwhile in a case-report article.
Could you add a table? datas would be more readable.
