Registration Number

Lead Sponsor
Hacettepe University
Brief Summary

CTG was harvested from 21 patients in each group. Donor site was treated with either GS (control) or GS+CY (test). Palatal tissue thickness, graft dimensions, working time (WT) and primary bleeding time were recorded intraoperatively. The data of pain perception (PP) will be measured using visual analog scale, quantity of analgesics (QA), secondary bleeding (SB), epithelization level (EL), and color match (CM) will be assessed prospectively. these outcomes will be evaluated in the first 7 days and 14th, 21th, and 28th days. Patient reported outcomes will be recorded using OHIB 14 questionnaire.

Gelatine SpongeGelatin Sponge;Thrombin, Bovine 5000 IU Multiple Routes Kit [GELFOAM-JMI SPONGE KIT]After local anesthesia (2% articaine HCl with epinephrine 1:100,000) administration, palatal thickness was measured by perpendicularly inserting a Michigan-O periodontal probe from the corners of the rectangular donor area and mean value was recorded as 'palatal tissue thickness (PTT)'. Epithelialized gingival graft was harvested with the method described by Zucchelli et al.19 After a rectangular shaped initial incision, graft with 1-1.5 mm thickness was harvested approximately 1.5 to 3 mm away from gingival margins of upper teeth. After harvesting, excess fatty tissues were removed and de-epithelialization was performed to obtain DGG. Donor site was closed either with GS (Spongostan®, Ethicon, Somerville, USA)

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Donor site pain perception (PP)first week

Patients score their daily donor site pain perception (PP) level by giving numbers from 0 to 10 according to the visual analog scale (VAS) (0: no pain, 1: minimal pain, 10: severe pain)

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Quantity of analgesics (QA)first week

Patients recorded the quantity of analgesics (QA) taken

Primary bleeding time (PBT)during surgery

Immediately after harvesting, sterile gauze was compressed to the palatal wound for 2 minutes, blood wiped once in every 30 seconds until bleeding stops. The duration was recorded as primary bleeding time (PBT).

Graft height (GH)during surgery

Dimensions were measured with periodontal probe

Graft width (GW)during surgery

Dimensions were measured with periodontal probe

Graft thickness (GT)during surgery

Dimensions were measured with periodontal probe

Working time (WT)during surgery

Harvesting process was recorded

Secondary bleeding (SB)first week

Patients recorded presence/absence of secondary bleeding (SB) (yes or no).

Sensation loss (SL)first week, second week , third week, fourth week.

Sensation loss (SL) was scored as none, medium or severe

Color match (CM)first week, second week, third week, fourth week.

Color match (CM) with the adjacent tissue was determined by using a VAS scale (0: absence of harmony, 10: excellent harmony)

Epithelization level (EL)first week, second week, third week, fourth week.

Epithelization level (EL) was scored as none, partial or full epithelization by means of bubble formation after dripping hydrogen peroxide (3%) to the wound surface following surgery
