Effect of hiora-ga gel on periodontal surgical wound – a clinical and microbiological study
Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF CURRENT RESEARCH - Year 2015, Vol 7, Issue 5
Abstract
The days following periodontal flap procedures are usually associated with bleeding, pain, swelling and infection. Conventionally, analgesics, antibiotics, periodontal dressings, antimicrobial mouthwashes/gels are used to prevent plaque accumulation and promote wound healing at the surgical site. HIORA GA gel is a polyherbal formulation that derives its benefits from four main ingredients namely-oil of Myrstica fragrans, extracts of Terminalia arjuna, Pterocarpus marsupium & Triphala. Each of these components are found to have significant effect on wound healing. The present study evaluates the efficacy of this gel in preventing the recolonisation of periodontopathic bacteria and promoting wound healing as compared with a periodontal dressing. The results of this clinical study clearly shows that HIORA-GA gel is effective for post periodontal surgery use as an alternative to periodontal dressing. The overall effect was also found to be significant. There were no adverse reactions either reported or observed during the entire study period and overall compliance to the treatment was excellent.
