Brief Summary

This randomized clinical trial was conducted to assess the effects of platelets-rich fibrin (PRF) and ozonated oil on the healing of palatal donor wound sites and the patient's morbidity after free gingival graft (FGG) harvesting

Study Arms (3)

PRF group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The PRF was prepared according to Choukroun et al. \[5\] immediately before surgery, a 10 ml blood sample was taken by venipuncture of the antecubital vein without anticoagulant. The tubes were centrifuged immediately by a dedicated centrifuge at 3,000 rpm for 10 minutes. A structured fibrin clot was produced by such preparation protocol in the middle of the tube, with the erythrocytes at the bottom and acellular plasma at the top. Following elimination of acellular plasma, a sterile scissors was used to separate the PRF from the erythrocytes. A membrane of PRF was formed by squeezing it gently between two pieces of gauze. Folding of the membrane was performed to achieve the required thickness (1.0 mm) with accurate trimming to match the palatal wound. The obtained membrane was then placed at the palatal donor site and compressed with gauze. Then, it was secured with 3-0 black plaited silk and a stent was placed.

Drug: ozonated oil

Control group

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

the palatal wounds in control group were managed by compressing the donor site with gauze and periodontal pack was placed. Patients in control group used a soft stent to protect the palatal donor wound site . Patients were instructed firmly not to shatter the stent for 1 week. The stent was removed and reseated only by the operator during the application of medications and collection of smears. One week postoperatively, the protective stents were discontinued.

Drug: ozonated oil

ozonated group

EXPERIMENTAL

the palatal wound in ozanaited group will be painted by ozainated oil 2ml daily for 1 week, Patients used a soft stent to protect the palatal donor wound site . Patients were instructed firmly not to shatter the stent for 1 week. The stent was removed and reseated only by the operator during the application of medications and collection of smears. One week postoperatively, the protective stents were discontinued.

Drug: ozonated oil

Interventions

All patients in ozone group were asked to visit the clinic on a daily basis through the first week and have their allocated therapeutic medication applied to their particular palatal donor site wounds. The wounds were coated with 2 ml ozonated oil per day, with a concentration of 15 µg of ozone/ml of olive oil. Moreover, palatal wounds in control group were managed by compressing the donor site with gauze and periodontal pack was placed. Patients in ozone group used a soft stent to protect the palatal donor wound site and to retain the tested oils in the post harvested palatal wounds. Patients were instructed firmly not to shatter the stent for 1 week. The stent was removed and reseated only by the operator during the application of medications and collection of smears. One week postoperatively, the protective stents were discontinued.
