May 18, 2022 updated by: AYSAN LEKTEMUR ALPAN, Pamukkale University
In our study, three different medicaments were evaluated in terms of postoperative complications after free gingival grafting (FGG).

Study Overview

Detailed Description

In our study, three different medicaments were evaluated in terms of postoperative complications after free gingival grafting. The effectiveness of these 3 different commercially available agents containing flurbiprofen, hyaluronic acid, and hypochlorous acid, after use 2., 4.7. and on the 14th day, wound healing and pain perception was compared with the control group. primary observation was obtained by visual analog scale, wound healing index, bleeding of tissue, color match, and amount of painkiller used by the patient were also recorded

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
Control
Patients were not given anything after FGG.
Free gingival graft was taken from the palatal mucosa of the patients in order to increase the attached gingiva.
Flurbiprofen
Oral spray containing 0.075 g flurbiprofen administered after FGG
Free gingival graft was taken from the palatal mucosa of the patients in order to increase the attached gingiva.

Free gingival graft was taken from the palatal mucosa of the patients in order to increase the attached gingiva.

After FGG, the patients were asked to apply this spray to the palatal mucosa 3 times a day.

Other Names:

After FGG, the patients were asked to apply this spray to the palatal mucosa 3 times a day.

Other Names:
  • Free gingival graft harvesting
Hyaluronic acid
An oral spray containing the main component of the product is hyaluronic acid (sodium salt) with a high molecular weight of 30 mg / 100 g was given to patients after FGG

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Landry's Wound Healing Index (WHI)
Time Frame: 21 days
WHI was performed on the basis of postoperative healing characteristics categorized as tissue color, response to palpation, incision margins, and suppuration.
21 days

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Visual Analogue Scale
Time Frame: 21 days
Recording the pain perception of the patients on a scale from 0 to 10. 0 - no pain 10 - worst pain
21 days
Color match
Time Frame: 21 days
scoring the color match of the healed tissue area with the patient's remaining tissue
21 days
delayed bleeding
Time Frame: 21 days
examining the patient whether there is postoperative bleeding, if there is a positive, if not, it should be recorded as negative.
21 days
burning sensation
Time Frame: 21 days
Evaluation of the burning sensation felt in the healing area of the patient's palate from 0 to 10. 0-no burning sensation 10- excessive burning
21 days
complete epithelization
Time Frame: 21 days
Examination of epithelialization with 3% oxygenated water. keeping records according to the foaming rate in the tissue
21 days
