Effects of Epithelialization-enhancing Agents Following Diode Laser-assisted Frenectomy: A Randomized Clinical Trial
Sponsor: University of Zagreb
Summary
The purpose of this randomized clinical trial is to evaluate and compare the effects of two topical epithelialization-enhancing agents-a hyaluronic acid-based gel (Gengigel®) and a bioactive micronutrient-based gel (Miradont®-Gel)-versus no topical agent (control) on soft tissue wound healing following diode laser-assisted maxillary labial frenectomy. Pediatric and adolescent patients requiring maxillary labial frenectomy are randomly assigned into three parallel groups:Control Group: Diode laser frenectomy without topical agent application. Miradont® Group: Diode laser frenectomy followed by postoperative application of Miradont®-Gel three times daily for 14 days. Gengigel® Group: Diode laser frenectomy followed by postoperative application of Gengigel® three times daily for 14 days. Postoperative wound healing, re-epithelialization, and cellular maturation are evaluated clinically and cytologically on days 3, 7, and 14 following the surgical intervention.

Hyaluronic Acid Gel (Gengigel®)
Topical application of hyaluronic acid gel (approx. 0.5 ml) directly to the laser surgical wound three times daily (after meals and before sleep) for 14 consecutive days.
Bioactive Micronutrient Gel (Miradont®-Gel)
opical application of bioactive micronutrient gel containing vitamins and minerals (approx. 0.5 ml) directly to the laser surgical wound three times daily (after meals and before sleep) for 14 consecutive days.
