Summary
This study tested whether a nano-crystalline silver dressing helps gums heal faster and with less pain after surgical removal of dark gum pigmentation. Twelve adults with moderate to severe gum pigmentation had the surgery, and the silver dressing was compared to a standard dressing. The researchers measured wound healing, skin regrowth, and pain levels over four weeks.
