The Effect of Two Different Approaches on Palatal Donor Site

The Effect of Two Different Approaches on Palatal Donor Site Management After De-epithelialized Graft Harvesting: Randomized Clinical Study

• Status: Completed
• Phase: N/A
• Study type: Interventional
• Enrollment: 50 (actual)
• Sponsor: Medipol University · Academic / Other
• Sex: All
• Age: 18 Years – 65 Years
• Healthy volunteers: Accepted

Summary

An epithelialized gingival graft will be harvested from the palate for the treatment of various mucogingival deformities. The donor site will be treated with either a combination of a collagen sponge, cyanoacrylate and suspending sutures or a collagen sponge, cyanoacrylate, suspending sutures and coconut oil.

Detailed description

After epithelialized gingival graft harvesting, intraoperatively, measurements will be taken for palatal tissue thickness, graft dimensions, working time, and primary bleeding time. Data regarding pain perception will be gauged using a visual analog scale, and the number of analgesics, secondary bleeding, epithelization level, and color match will be assessed prospectively. These outcomes will be evaluated on the first 7 days and subsequently on the 14th, 21st, and 28th days. Patient-reported outcomes will be recorded using the Oral Health Impact Profile-14 questionnaire.
