Two wound-covering materials in the surgical treatment of oral submucous fibrosis: a clinical comparison
ABSTRACT: Introduction: Oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF), a chronic debilitating condition of the mouth, has been treated both surgically and non-surgically, but non-surgical methods yield inconsistent results. The surgical methods essentially comprise of bilateral sectioning of fibrous bands with or...

| description | ABSTRACT: Introduction: Oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF), a chronic debilitating condition of the mouth, has been treated both surgically and non-surgically, but non-surgical methods yield inconsistent results. The surgical methods essentially comprise of bilateral sectioning of fibrous bands with or without coronoidectomy followed by covering of the surgical defect with a graft or a wound dressing material such as collagen sheet. Materials and Methods: This study comprised 30 clinically diagnosed cases of OSMF. This study compared transposition of buccal pad fat graft with collagen sheet to cover the defect within the following parameters: pain, swelling, mouth opening, color of mucosa, palpability of fibrous bands, and suppleness of mucosa. Results: We found significant difference in the postoperative mouth opening, an insignificant difference for post surgical morbidity and higher grades of surgical convenience in using collagen sheet as a wound dressing material. Conclusion: Collagen membrane is a superior method compared to transposition of the buccal pad of fat as a graft to cover the surgical wound in the treatment of OSMF of grade III and above. |
