“…Application of periodontal dressing following surgery or excision of intraoral adhesion to allow the exposed surface to heal has been described and practiced quite commonly. 4 Periodontal dressings provide an optimal environment for the healing of wound and also prevent exposure of wound to intraoral bacteria and saliva. 5 With the teeth to provide support for the retention of periodontal dressings, the dressing usually adapts well to the underlying gingival and bony tissues, thereby providing excellent tissue healing and patient comfort.…”

“…5 With the teeth to provide support for the retention of periodontal dressings, the dressing usually adapts well to the underlying gingival and bony tissues, thereby providing excellent tissue healing and patient comfort. 4 However, in traumatic cases where tooth loss is common, the use of periodontal dressing poses a big challenge due to its retention problem. This exactly was the situation in the present case as well since the patient had no supporting teeth.…”

“…Other advantages includes decrease in tooth hypersensitivity in the early postoperative hours, providing additional comfort as the surgical site heals, providing support in free gingival grafts, preventing post-operative haemorrhage or infection, protecting the clot from pressures generated by speech or mastication, preventing detachment of gingiva from the surface of the root, preventing coronal flap displacement in apically repositioned flaps, and preserving and protecting denuded bone during the process of healing. 5 Over the years, composition of the periodontal dressing has been modified. There are three distinct categories of materials: those that contain both eugenol and zinc oxide (Ward's Wonderpak), those that contain zinc oxide only (Coe-Pak, PeriPac, Vocopac, SeptoPack, Periocarea), and those that don't have zinc oxide and eugenol (Resopac, Mucotect, Barricaid).…”

“…5 Ideally, periodontal dressings should exert an antimicrobial effect against oral bacteria. 6 Thus, several agents have been added to the composition of periodontal dressings such as eugenol, tetracycline, zinc bacitracin, chlorothymol, bergamote oil, and chlorhexidine. 7 Despite the efficiency of such agents, it is important to note that chemical inactivation of the added active substances may occur during the healing process.…”
