Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

Postoperative pain measured by Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)
Postoperative pain will be assessed using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) at 24 hours and 7 days after surgery. The VAS ranges from 0 to 100 mm, where 0 mm represents no pain and 100 mm represents the worst pain imaginable. Higher scores indicate greater pain and therefore a worse outcome. Pain scores will be compared between patients treated with buccal fat pad flap and buccal advancement flap.
24 hours and 7 days post-operation
