Patient-reported outcomes were collected through a questionnaire completed over the phone daily from the day of exposure until symptom resolution. Surgery duration, recorded by the operator, and complications within four weeks, was obtained from the patient\u2019s record. The outcome assessor and the individual conducting the follow-up calls were blinded to group allocation. Repeated measures analyses were used for data collected at multiple time points. Mann\u2013Whitney U-test, chi-square test or Fisher\u2019s exact test, as appropriate was used for other between-group comparisons.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n Of the 92 patients randomised, 83 completed the intervention: 43 in the GOPEX group (13.8 \u00b1 1.5 years) and 40 in the CE group (13.6 \u00b1 1.2 years). Throughout the full postoperative period, the groups did not differ significantly in pain levels, percentage of pain-free patients, analgesic use, or chewing difficulty. During the first postoperative week, however, the GOPEX group reported higher pain (fold change 1.78; 95% CI: 1.07\u20132.99; P = 0.028). Fewer GOPEX patients were pain-free at one week, and they consumed more analgesics on postoperative days 4 and 5. Surgery duration was similar between groups, and complications were rare and comparable.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n Although the GOPEX group reported more pain during the first postoperative week, overall pain scores and analgesic consumption across the full postoperative period did not differ between groups.
