Trial Design

3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: GROUP 3Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
A surgical stent will be delivered to cover the surgical site and apply pressure on the wound site.
Group II: GROUP 2Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
H-PRF membranes will be placed on the palatal donor site to help stabilizing the blood clot and release of growth factors that help in deceasing the discomfort wound healing.
Group III: GROUP 1Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
L-PRF membranes will be placed on the palatal donor site to help stabilizing the blood clot and release of growth factors that help in deceasing the discomfort wound healing.
