Effect of Cyanoacrylate Tissue Adhesive Versus Collagen Sponge on Palatal Donor Site Healing
Effect of Cyanoacrylate Tissue Adhesive Versus Collagen Sponge on Palatal Donor Site Healing After Harvesting a Free Gingival Graft: a Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial
Beirut Arab University
22 participants
Aug 4, 2025
INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the use of cyanoacrylate glue (PeriAcryl) is effective in healing of the palatal donor site in adults requiring a free gingival graft. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer \[is/are\]: Does PeriAcryl accelerate the palatal tissue healing compared with the use of collagen sponge? Does PeriAcryl usage leave the patients more satisfied? Researcher will compare the outcomes of participants treated with PeriAcryl to those treated with collagen sponge to see if PeriAcryl accelerated the healing process of palatal tissues and led to fewer postoperative complications. Participants will: * be assigned to a study group using PeriAcryl or control group using Collagen sponge. * be followed-up to monitor healing and gather clinical information.

Interventions
Cyanoacrylate tissue adhesive is a chemical synthetic and hybrid tissue sealant possessing strong, rapid acting adhesive properties and is often used in general surgery. Recently, cyanoacrylate tissue adhesive has been effectively introduced into dentistry to close wounds and stop ischemic areas from forming in periodontal aesthetic surgeries. As well as in exposed membranes to preserve the bone graft after guided bone regeneration, in post-extraction sockets, and to seal any surgical flap. This material has strong hemostatic, bacteriostatic, and sealing qualities.
Collagen sponge is an organic polymer that promotes the development of blood clots, and it resorbs quickly and completely over time. Collagen sponge create a matrix at the bleeding site, encourage platelet activation and aggregation, and engage the extrinsic coagulation pathway. Thus, it can be utilized as the first choice for wound healing.
