A Prospective Study to Compare Temporoparietal Fascia Flap and Buccal Fat Pad in Surgical Management of Oral Submucous Fibrosis

Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Research Professionals - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 5

Abstract

Aim: To evaluate the application of temporoparietal flap versus buccal fat pad graft in the surgical management of oral sub mucous fibrosis. Material and Methods: This prospective study was carried out in the Department of Dentistry, American International Institute of Medical Sciences, Udaipur, Rajasthan, India. A total of 10 patients were selected for study. These 10 patients were randomly divided into two groups group 1 and group 2. In group 1 patients, reconstruction was planned with buccal fat pad graft and in group 2 patients, reconstruction was planned with temporoparietal flap respectively. Statistical Analysis Used Man Whitney U test. Results: The mean interincisal distance of selected patients was 12 mm. According to by Mann-Whitney U test the increase in the interincisal distance (after 6months) for Group I was 143.04% and Group II was 109.09%. Conclusions: In the present study, buccal fat pad graft proved to give better results as the interposition material as it has good patient acceptance, rapid epithelization, minimal donor site morbidity and minimal intra and postoperative complications.
