The Effects of Topical Hyaluronic Acid and Laser Application on Wound Healing in Children

• Status: Enrolling by invitation
• Trial end date: 2023-11-01
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

Tooth extraction is one of the major surgical procedures that can cause dental anxiety and dental fear in pediatric patients as a result of traumatic experiences. Preventing pain and infection by appropriate means during and after this application increases patient comfort and helps to develop patient cooperation for possible future dental experiences.

In the current literature, it has been shown that topical hyaluronic acid applications have a role in reducing infection and pain.

There are also studies in the literature showing that tissue biostimulation with different doses of diode laser application accelerates wound healing by promoting cell regeneration.

Although there are studies showing that two different applications accelerate wound healing, there is no study comparing the effectiveness of these two methods. In addition, there is no study evaluating extraction wound healing in pediatric patients.

Our study will be the first to evaluate tooth extraction wound healing in pediatric patients and to compare these two methods.
