EVALUATION OF THE EFFECT OF POLYVINYLPYROLIDONE AND SODIUM HYALURONATE GEL ON PALATINAL WOUND HEALING

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Palatal Wound
Interventions
Procedure: FREE GİNGİVAL GRAFT
Device: polyvinylpyrrolidone sodium hyaluronate gel
Registration Number
NCT06610331
Lead Sponsor
Abant Izzet Baysal University
Brief Summary

The aim of this clinical study was to evaluate the effect of polyvinylpyrrolidone sodium hyaluronate gel on palatal wound healing, pain, and bleeding after free gingival graft surgery. This study included 32 systemically healthy patients who required free gingival graft surgery. After the operation, the test group received polyvinylpyrrolidone sodium hyaluronate gel in addition to chlorhexidine gluconate mouthwash, whereas the control group received only chlorhexidine gluconate mouthwash. VAS scale was used to evaluate palatal pain, burning, and chewing discomfort, WHI was used to evaluate wound healing, and H2O2 foaming test was used to evaluate epithelialization. VAS and bleeding values were recorded on postoperative day 1; VAS, WHI, H2O2, and bleeding values on postoperative days 3, 7, and 14; and WHI, H2O2, and bleeding values on postoperative day 28.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Epithelialization28 days

Epithelialization of the palatal region was performed by applying 3% hydrogen peroxide to the wound area with the help of an injector, and the areas showing foaming (H2O2 bubbling) in the total surface area of the wound area were calculated as a percentage and recorded, providing information about epithelialization.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
wound healing28 days

Palatal wound healing was assessed using the Wound Healing Index (WHI) as described by Landry et al. (1985)
