Using Resveratrol Gel to Reduce Pain After Gum Surgery

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study aims to compare the effectiveness of a Resveratrol-based gel versus a 0.2% Hyaluronic acid gel applied to the palatal donor site following free gingival graft surgery. The approach involves a comprehensive periodontal treatment prior to surgery, followed by the harvesting of a free gingival graft from the palate. Post-operative pain management will be assessed by applying either gel or an acrylic resin stent alone to the surgical site. The goal is to determine which treatment option provides better pain relief after the procedure.
