Brief Summary
the aim of present study was to evaluate effects of ozone therapy on wound healing after gingivectomy and gingivoplasty operations as a model of secondary wound healing.. Twenty three systemically healthy individuals participated in this study. Ozone was applied immediately after surgery, at 1st day and 3rd day after gingivectomy surgery. In the photographs of the wounds, the difference in color were evaluated and measurements were performed at the baseline, 3rd, 7th, 14th days after surgery.

Conditions
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
wound healing change
surgical area was disclosed by a plaque disclosing solution to visualize the epithelization degree of the surgical areas. Solution provided a clear vision to distinguish normal gingiva from the areas in which the gingival epithelium is absent, abraded or lacking sufficient keratinization. In order to evaluate epithelization degree of the wounds, standardized photographs were taken from each patient
At baseline and 3rd, 7th, 14th days after surgery, wound healing evaluation were performed.
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Pain change
Postoperative pain was assessed at 3rd, 7th, 14th days after surgery
Study Arms (2)
ozone group
EXPERIMENTALAfter gingivectomy and gingivoplasty, right quadrants of the surgical areas were assigned to receive ozone therapy in all patients
non-ozone group
NO INTERVENTIONplacebo application, left quadrants received regular air from the ozone generator.
Interventions
The adjustment of the ozone generator was %75 power for 30 seconds (75 ug/ml) based on manufacturer's instructions
