A Randomized Controlled Trial to Measure Pain Perception Following De-Epithelized Free Gingival Graft Harvesting

• Status: Completed
• Phase: N/A
• Study type: Interventional
• Enrollment: 72 (actual)
• Sponsor: University of Alabama at Birmingham · Academic / Other
• Sex: All
• Age: 18 Years – 70 Years
• Healthy volunteers: Accepted

Summary

This randomized clinical comparative study will evaluate the postoperative pain following the FGG graft harvest procedure technique covered by four different methods for coverage of the palatal donor site.

Detailed description

This study will compare the application of : * hemostatic collagen sponge * collagen sponge sealed with abio-adhesive material * Platelet rich fibrin * physical barrier (stent) on the palatal donor sites with the purpose of which one of these will result in least postoperative pain after epithelialized gingival graft (EGG) harvesting.

Conditions

• Gingival Recession
• Palate; Wound

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DIAGNOSTIC_TEST	palatal wound will be cover with collagen and sutures	after harvesting the graft from the palate, a collagen sponge will be sutured to cover the harvested site
DIAGNOSTIC_TEST	palatal wound covered with platelet rich fibrin	after harvesting the graft from the palate the platelet rich fibrin will be sutured to covered the harvested site
DIAGNOSTIC_TEST	palatal wound covered with a collagen sponge and cyanoacrylate	after harvesting the graft from the palate a collagen sponge will be sealed with cyanoacrylate in position
DIAGNOSTIC_TEST	palatal wound covered with a stent	after harvesting the graft from the palate a stent that will be prepared for the patient, will be placed on to cover the wound
