No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study evaluated the outcomes in the early healing of palatal wounds after harvesting a subepithelial connective tissue graft (SCTG) using the single incision technique with placement of a collagen haemostatic sponge (CHS) without suturing the palate. The primary outcome of this study was to evaluate the early wound healing index (EHI).

PROCEDURE

Subepithelial connective tissue graft (SCTG) using the single incision technique, with and without suturing the palate

A SCTG was harvested using the single incision technique described by Hürzeler \& Weng. The palatal incisions were standardized to extend between the area between mesial of the canine and mesial of the first molar.In the Suture Group sites a cross- mattress suture and interrupted single sutures were performed using nylon 5-0 when appropriate. In the no Suture Group sites, no suture was performed. In both groups, a CHS was placed after removing the graft to achieve the haemostasis of the palate and subsequent compressed with gauze soaked in saline for 5 minutes.
