A second surgical site is created after tunnel preparation. A free gingival graft was collected from the lateral palate, with extra-oral desepithelialization, becoming a subepithelial connective tissue graft. (Zucchelli, Mele et al. 2010).

Due to collagen possesses the characteristics of low antigenecity, excellent biocompatibility and biodegradability, collagen material has been studied in clinical trials to determine its safety and effectiveness. Xenogeneic collagen matrix from porcine was used for the generation of keratinized tissue around teeth in a single-masked, randomized, controlled, split-mouth study of 30 patients.39 The results showed that the porcine collagen matrix increased keratinized tissue around teeth to a similar degree in contrast to the positive control, an autogenous free gingival graft. The study indicated the porcine collagen matrix appeared to be a suitable substitute for autogenous free gingival graft for the patients. However, the application of collagen derived DDSs for nervous system injury repairing in patients remains to be researched in the future work.
Topical simvastatin gel as a novel therapeutic modality for palatal donor site wound healing following free gingival graft procedure
Published in Acta Odontologica Scandinavica, 2018
After harvesting the free gingival graft from the palate, the donor site was irrigated with sterile saline, and haemostasis was achieved with gauze moistened in saline. Then, four different covering techniques were applied over the donor site to protect the surgical region. In group I: Simvastatin suspension (S), group II: simvastatin/chitosan gel (SC), group III: chitosan gel (C), group IV: petroleum gel (P). In group II, the donor site was covered with simvastatin/chitosan gel (10 mg/mL). The patient was instructed to apply 1 mL of the gel or the suspension three times/day for the following 7 days post-operatively. The gel/suspension was provided in 3-mL syringes and patients were instructed to apply it over the wound using cotton swap and to avoid drinking or eating for one hour after the gel application. A non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesic was prescribed for the patients (twice/day). The patients recorded their analgesic consumption following the surgical procedure.

Free gingival graft as a gingival augmentation procedure was done to increase the sufficient amount of keratinized gingival to provide better plaque control. Basically, this procedure was done by scalpel (6). Recently, the application of laser for oral surgeries has gained special attention due to their advantages over conventional methods such as less pain, providing faster healing, coagulation led to dry field for better visualization. Laser technology with appropriate parameters has provided the ability for tissue fusion and incision with better visual and mechanical access and less discomfort (7).
