Evaluation of palatal donor site haemostasis and wound healing after free gingival graft surgery

Abstract

MPE provided faster and continuous haemostasis that made a positive contribution to the early soft tissue healing to some extent but due to limitations; further trials are needed to demonstrate the efficiency of this material.

The influence of palatal harvesting technique on the donor site vascular injury: A split‐mouth comparative cadaver study

“…15 Indeed, it has been demonstrated that the corono-apical dimension of the graft and the residual soft tissue thickness over the bone has a significant impact on the experienced post-operative pain. 16,[37][38][39] Harvesting a graft from the superficial palate, thus, avoiding larger blood vessels and nerves in deeper layers has also been considered as one of the main advantages of the FGGT. 16,[37][38][39] Harvesting a graft from the superficial palate, thus, avoiding larger blood vessels and nerves in deeper layers has also been considered as one of the main advantages of the FGGT.…”

Quantitative changes in palatal donor site thickness after free gingival graft harvesting: a pilot study

“…, Keceli et al. ), and all the patients enrolled in this study were evaluated to determine their epithelialization status. As we know, bleeding is the normal component of the surgical procedures.…”

Effect of topically applied hyaluronic acid on pain and palatal epithelial wound healing: An examiner‐masked, randomized, controlled clinical trial

“…The most common postoperative complications are pain, burning sensation, and delayed wound healing on the donor site . To reduce postoperative complications and promote wound healing, various hemostatic agents, dressing materials, platelet‐rich fibrin, and analgesics have been used over the years. However, in the relevant literature no ideal agent has been emphasized …”
