Summary

When patients undergo minor oral surgery, dentists use various types of stitches (sutures) to help the gums heal. These stitches can be made of different materials, and some might feel more comfortable, cause less pain, or interfere less with eating and speaking than others.

The purpose of this study is to compare four commonly used dental suture materials to see which ones patients prefer. Participants in this study will receive four different types of stitches in different areas of their upper jaw after a routine dental procedure.

Patients will be asked to report their levels of pain, discomfort, and any difficulties with daily activities like eating and talking on Days 3, 7, and 14 after the procedure. A panel of dental specialists will also examine photos of the healing process to see if one material helps the mouth heal better than others. This research will help dentists choose the best materials to improve patient comfort after oral surgery.
