Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Treatment
  • Allocation: N/A
  • Interventional Model: Single Group Assignment
  • Masking: None (Open Label)

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: modified buccal flap and subepithelial connective palatal flap
Procedure: modified buccal flap and subepithelial connective palatal flap
The connective flap was harvested from the deeper area of the palatal mucosa. Pedicle flap dimensions were reported using the periodontal probe. The flap was then rotated to cover the oro antral communication (OAC) area. The rotation could be in mesial or distal direction, related to OAC position and for the convenience of the donor site. The connective palatal flap was sutured to the buccal periostium using mattress sutures.
