Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (3)
degree of epithelialization
3% hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) was applied to the wound by a sterile gause to see the bubbling * Complete epithelialization: bubble was not seen * Partial epithelialization: bubbles were seen in lesser than half of donor site * No epithelialization: bubble were seen in more than half of donor site
At day 7
degree of epithelialization
3% hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) was applied to the wound by a sterile gause to see the bubbling * Complete epithelialization: bubble was not seen * Partial epithelialization: bubbles were seen in lesser than half of donor site * No epithelialization: bubble were seen in more than half of donor site
At day 14

Study Arms (2)
low-level laser therapy
EXPERIMENTALLow-level laser (Diode, 66o nanometer, power:200 milli Watt (mW), Continuous wave, time of irradiation:32 seconds)is irradiated in donor site
Turned-off laser
PLACEBO COMPARATORThe same protocol is applied in te donor site, unless the laser is remained off.
Interventions
Low-level laser therapy with the following parameters: Wavelength:660 nanometer, power: 200 mW, continuous mode, tme of irradiation: 32 seconds
Laser device is turned-off. All parameters are like experimental group, however the laser in turned-off.
