Surgical Use Of Placentrex Gel As A Wound Healing Agent: A Case Report

Abstract

An inflammatory reaction to plaque on tooth surfaces or as a result of drugs and various systemic disorders is gingival enlargement Gingivectomy/gingivoplasty is used when local variables are at play and subgingival scaling and root planning are ineffective. This procedure leaves a raw wound that heals slowly. Because surgical practice primarily depends on these wounds healing without major complications or infections, placental extract gel has been used as a therapeutic agent to speed up the healing process after surgery because of its special pharmacological effects, which include enhanced wound-healing, anti-inflammatory, analgesic effect, and more. A variety of substances with biological and therapeutic activity present in human placenta have been isolated and identified as hormones, proteins, glycosaminoglycans, nucleic acids, polydeoxyribonucleotides (PDRNs) etc which therefore plays a major role in the faster healing of a surgical wound.
