Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • The Clinical Impact of L-PRF, H-PRF, or the Use of a Surgical Stent on Palatal Donor Site Healing.

    The primary outcome is to asses the percentage of re-epithelization of the palatal donor site and assess primary wound healing.

    5 days

  • The Clinical Impact of L-PRF, H-PRF, or the Use of a Surgical Stent on Palatal Donor Site Healing.

    The primary outcome is to asses the percentage of re-epithelization of the palatal donor site and assess primary wound healing.

    10 days

  • The Clinical Impact of L-PRF, H-PRF, or the Use of a Surgical Stent on Palatal Donor Site Healing.

    The primary outcome is to asses the percentage of re-epithelization of the palatal donor site and assess primary wound healing.

    14 days

  • The Clinical Impact of L-PRF, H-PRF, or the Use of a Surgical Stent on Palatal Donor Site Healing.

    The primary outcome is to asses the percentage of re-epithelization of the palatal donor site and assess primary wound healing.

    21 days

Study Arms (3)

GROUP 1

EXPERIMENTAL

L-PRF membranes will be placed on the palatal donor site to help stabilizing the blood clot and release of growth factors that help in deceasing the discomfort wound healing.

Biological: L-PRF (Leucocyte- platelet rich fibrin)

GROUP 2

EXPERIMENTAL

H-PRF membranes will be placed on the palatal donor site to help stabilizing the blood clot and release of growth factors that help in deceasing the discomfort wound healing.

Biological: H-PRF (Horizontal -platelet rich fibrin)

GROUP 3

EXPERIMENTAL

A surgical stent will be delivered to cover the surgical site and apply pressure on the wound site.

Device: Surgical stent

Interventions

Leucocyte-Platelet rich fibrin is a high density fibrin clot. it serves as a biological healing matrix by supporting cell migration and cytokine release, expanding the range of its potential applications greatly. Patient's own blood is centrifuged using (Intra-spin) FDA approved centrifuge on 45 degrees angle on 2700 rpm for 12 minutes.

GROUP 1

Platelet rich fibrin is a high density fibrin clot. it serves as a biological healing matrix by supporting cell migration and cytokine release, expanding the range of its potential applications greatly.Horizontally centrifuged platelet rich fibrin using (Bio-prf) centrifuge on 700 g force for 8 minutes. On a horizontal centrifugation, the cells separate much more efficiently throughout the entire membrane. This leads to better layer separation and also favors cells that are evenly distributed throughout the PRF clot.

GROUP 2

An essix surgical stent will be obtained using a high vacuum suction and used to protect the denuded donor site after suturing the wound. (Biostar® Scan/Biostar®V) will be used to make the stent.

Also known as: Essix retainer
GROUP 3
