Introduction Periodontal dressing is a commonly used dressing placed following various periodontal surgical procedures. There is increasing literature to support that silver nanoparticles (NPs) can promote wound healing through anti inflammatory properties. Silver nanoparticles (NPs) are being increasingly used nowadays as wound dressings. The present study was carried out to evaluate early wound healing using Nano-crystalline silver membrane placed under Coe-Pak dressing following periodontal flap surgery Objective To clinically evaluate early wound healing under Nanocrystalline silver membrane placed following periodontal flap surgery. Methodology Following flap surgery, the subjects will be randomly assigned to test or control groups. In test group subjects, the postsurgical wound will be covered with a combination of nano-crystalline silver membrane and Coe-Pak, whereas control group subjects will receive only Coe-Pak dressing post-surgery. Data will be analyzed using SPSS software. Results The healing was significantly better in the test group as compared to the control group at days 7 and 14. There was no statistically significant difference in the plaque index (PI) between the two groups. Conclusion The results of the study revealed that silver can be used as a potent periodontal dressing ingredient that can decrease the microbial colonization beneath the pack and promote faster healing due to its antimicrobial activity [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
