NCT ID NCT06073678

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tested whether shining a red laser on the roof of the mouth after a gum graft procedure could reduce pain and help the area heal faster. Thirty adults who needed gum grafts took part. Half received laser treatment on the donor site, while the other half received standard wound dressing only. Researchers measured pain, sensation recovery, and quality of life over 60 days. The goal was to see if laser therapy could make recovery more comfortable.
