The Palatal Mucosal Open Healing Index (PMOHI) effectively monitors soft tissue healing after oral surgery. Protecting the palatal donor site with a stent significantly improves healing outcomes compared to open wound management.

Area of Science:

  • Oral surgery
  • Periodontology
  • Wound healing research

Background:

  • Objective assessment tools are crucial for monitoring soft tissue healing in modern oral surgery.
  • The Palatal Mucosal Open Healing Index (PMOHI) provides standardized monitoring of epithelialization and tissue repair.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the Palatal Open Healing Index (PMOHI) as a clinical criterion for monitoring and predicting soft tissue regeneration.
  • To compare the effectiveness of different palatal donor site management techniques on healing outcomes.

Main Methods:

  • 192 patients with gingival recession received surgical treatment.
  • Palatal donor sites were managed using six different techniques, including open wound conditions.
  • Healing was assessed using the Palatal Mucosal Open Healing Index (PMOHI) on postoperative days 7 and 14.

Main Results:

  • Open wound management on day 7 was associated with poor or very poor healing in most patients.
  • The group with a protective stent showed significantly better healing outcomes (84.4% scored 4 - good healing).
  • Statistical analysis confirmed significant differences in healing based on management technique (p≤0.001).

Conclusions:

  • The Palatal Mucosal Open Healing Index (PMOHI) is a versatile tool for assessing regenerative processes in surgical dentistry.
  • Standardized assessment using PMOHI improves diagnostic accuracy, prognosis, and treatment effectiveness.
  • Protective measures, such as stents, enhance palatal donor site healing.
