Pain Perception in Protection of the Palatal Donor Area After Harvesting a Free Gingival Graft Using Flowable Resin Versus a Self-adhesive Dressing
Sponsor: Universidad de Especialidades Espiritu Santo
Summary
The use of a connective tissue graft harvested from the palate is currently one of the most effective and predictable alternatives for the correction of periodontal and peri-implant defects, but the discomfort generated in the palate is sometimes greater than mucogingival surgery. For this reason, we found the need to use different materials for palatal protection. In one group we will use light-cured fluid resin compared to another group a self-adhesive dressing to check which of these materials provides less postoperative pain generated by the harvest of a free gingival graft.
