PEREZ HERNANDEZ, Leyda Yenima et al. Effectiveness of Tisuacryl as a periodontal dressing in surgical techniques. Rev Ciencias Médicas [online]. 2019, vol.23, n.2, pp. 250-258. ISSN 1561-3194.
ABSTRACT
Introduction:
Tisuacryl is a highly effective biomaterial as a periodontal dressing in papillectomies, gingivectomies and gingivoplasties.
Objective:
to determine the effectiveness of Tisuacryl with respect to surgical cement or Quirucem, used as a periodontal dressing in periodontal surgeries.
Methods:
observational analytical study of cases and controls in 60 patients with the diagnosis of chronic fibrous and fibro-edematous gingivitis from September 2016 to June 2017. Physical examination, periodontal history, periodontal treatment and selection of patients in need of surgical treatment were performed. Summary measures were used for qualitative variables, such as percentage and for quantitative variables such as mean and standard deviation. The chi-square statistical test with a significance level of &= 0.05 was used to compare the groups with different treatment modalities.
Results:
all patients treated with Tisuacryl expressed comfort with its use and no accumulation of dentobacterial plaque occurred. Only 30 % had redness at seven days, but at 15 days the wound was completely healed. With Quirucem all the symptoms and signs studied were present along with redness in all cases; more than the half of patients complained of discomfort during evolution and 40 % of the cases at 15 days remained totally unhealed.
Conclusions:
Tisuacryl was more effective than Quirucem considering the shorter time of cicatrization, greater comfort and better aesthetics results in patients.
