Cyanoacrylate With or Without Suture?

An epithelialized gingival graft will be harvested from the palate for the treatment of various mucogingival deformities. The donor site will be treated with either a combination of a collagen sponge and cyanoacrylate or a collagen sponge, cyanoacrylate, and suspending sutures. Intraoperatively, measurements will be taken for palatal tissue thickness, graft dimensions, working time, and primary bleeding time. Data regarding pain perception will be gauged using a visual analog scale, and the number of analgesics, secondary bleeding, epithelization level, and color match will be assessed prospectively. These outcomes will be evaluated on the first 7 days and subsequently on the 14th, 21st, and 28th days. Patient-reported outcomes will be recorded using the Oral Health Impact Profile-14 questionnaire.

Treatment and study plan

Gelatin sponge stabilization with suture and cyanoacrylate

Device

The donor site will be closed both with gelatin sponge +Cyanoacrylate (Spongostan®, Ethicon, USA)+ supporting sutures (control group)

Gelatin sponge stabilization with cyanoacrylate

Procedure

Seconder The donor site will be closed both with gelatin sponge +Cyanoacrylate (Spongostan®, USA) (test group)

Primary outcomes

  1. Donor site pain perception

    Time frame: everyday in first week

    Patients score their daily donor site pain perception using visual analog score level by giving numbers from 0 to 10 according to the visual analog scale (0: no pain, 1: minimal pain, 10: severe pain)

  2. Secondary bleeding time

    Time frame: during first week

    Patients will record presence or absence of secondary bleeding (presence=1 or absence=0).

Secondary outcomes

  1. Graft height

    Time frame: during surgery

    Dimensions will be measured during surgery by clinician using Michigan O probe (will be reported in mm)

  2. Graft width

    Time frame: during surgery

    Dimensions will be measured during surgery by clinician using Michigan O probe.(will be reported in mm)

  3. Graft thickness

    Time frame: during surgery

    Dimensions will be measured during surgery by clinician using Michigan O probe (will be reported in mm)

  4. Working time

    Time frame: during surgery

    Harvesting process will be recorded by an blinded research assistant

  5. Quantity of analgesics

    Time frame: first week

    Patients recorded the quantity of analgesics taken will be reported as quantity of pill

  6. Sensation loss

    Time frame: first week, second week , third week, fourth week.

    Sensation loss will be scored by the help of clinician comparing with the symmetrical side an will be recorded as no-loss, medium loss or severe loss

  7. Color match

    Time frame: first week, second week, third week, fourth week.

    Color match with the adjacent tissue was determined by researcher using a Visual Analog Pain Scale scale (0: absence of harmony, 10: excellent harmony)

  8. Epithelization level

    Time frame: first week, second week, third week, fourth week.

    Epithelization level was scored by researcher as none, partial or full epithelization by means of bubble formation after dripping hydrogen peroxide (3%) to the wound surface.

  9. The Oral Health Impact Profile-14 is a questionnaire that measures how oral disorders impact a patient's quality of life.

    Time frame: first week

    The questionnaire has 14 items with answers rated on a 5-point Likert scale (from 1 = never to 5 = very often) to indicate a level of different problems related to oral health
