Background: Despite the use of various instruments for removal of third molars the magnitude of severity of postoperative sequelae still remains a question unanswered. Our study uses a post operative symptom severity scale (Posse) to assess the quality of life after the procedure in comparison to conventional rotary.

Aim: Evaluate the Efficacy between the piezotome and conventional rotary in removal of mandibular third molars. Material and Methods: third molar extraction was performed using conventional rotary on one side and piezotome on the other within interval of 7days.

Results: The present study was a split mouth study in which piezosurgery can be used in a day-to-day case basis despite the longer duration of surgery.

Conclusion: It is an excellent tool to reduce the risk of complication and to improve post - operative outcome. Although we would not say it is an economical option and also it may be more time-consuming.
