The study included a total of sytemically healthy 40 patients , with high labial frenulum attachment requiring frenectomy. Following laser-assisted frenectomy operation HA gel was applied to the wound surface in the test group, and no application was made to the control group The HA application was made topically to completely cover the surgical area on days 3, 7, and 14 postoperatively. Photographs of the operation area were taken on days 3, 7, and 14. The changes in the area measurements between the digital images according to the healing periods were calculated on a computer. according to Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) was used to evaluate Patient comfort and pain levels.
