Popis: | The present study deals with the clinical use of butyl cyanoacrylate (a chemical adhesive) as a periodontal and surgical dressing in man. The study, conducted in 105 patients in whom a total of 276 applications were made, reveals the following: 1. Butyl cyanoacrylate is a far better periodontal dressing than any in use at the present time. This conclusion is based on the fact that it is applied with great ease, is a hemostatic agent, is not bulky and therefore permits the use of prostheses, can be used around single teeth, reduces postoperative pain, usually requires only one application, does not induce overabundant granulation, and accelerates the healing process. 2. When applied on extraction sites, it produces immediate hemostasis. 3. Over large areas of mucosal ulceration produced in recurrent aphthae and leukemia, application of this adhesive produces transitory relief from pain and discomfort. |
