Various alternatives have been developed amongst which newer tissue adhesives such as N-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate having accepted clinical properties are gaining popularity. The primary purpose of the present study is to evaluate the efficacy of N-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate for intraoral attached mucosal wound closure following alveoloplasty.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Materials and Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      In this prospective split-mouth study, 25 patients requiring alveoloplasty in either maxillary or mandibular arch bilaterally with a total of 50 sites were divided into two equal groups, namely silk suture (Group 1) and cyanoacrylate (Group 2).

The incidence of wound dehiscence and wound infection was observed more in Group 1 on the third post-operative day. Suture breakage (16%) and adhesive dislodgement (8%) were reported on the seventh post-operative day.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Discussion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The use of cyanoacrylates\u2019 inherent benefits, such as improved wound seal off in attached mucosa, quick polymerisation and bacteriostatic characteristics can be beneficial when performing minor oral surgical procedures on elderly, young and mentally challenged patients.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.4103\/ams.ams_2_23","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,7,31]],"date-time":"2023-07-31T09:00:29Z","timestamp":1690794029000},"page":"31-36","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Attached Oral Mucosal Wound Closure using Blue Glue -
