First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tested whether a gel made from hyaluronic acid (a natural substance in the body) can help heal wounds on the roof of the mouth after gum graft surgery. Thirty adults aged 18 to 70 took part, and researchers measured wound size and pain levels over six weeks. The goal was to see if the gel improves healing and reduces discomfort compared to standard care.
