Management of Postoperative Pain Following Free Gingival Graft Harvesting Using Ora-Aid Versus Acrylic Palatal Stent

간략 요약

This randomized clinical trial evaluates the effectiveness of Ora-Aid oral wound dressing compared to an acrylic palatal stent in managing postoperative pain following free gingival graft harvesting. Patients undergoing graft harvesting will be randomly assigned to receive either Ora-Aid dressing or a palatal stent at the donor site. The primary outcome is postoperative pain assessed using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). Secondary outcomes include analgesic consumption, wound size, patient satisfaction, and color match over a 42-day follow-up period.
