Abstract

Human Genetics 2016: Nano-silver suture as a new application for healing of periodontal flaps: In vitro histopathological, double blind study - Majid Zakeri - Mashhad University of Medical Sciences

Majid Zakeri

Background & Aim: It has been postulated that conventional suture materials such as silk may enhance bacterial biofilm growth causing delay in healing of surgical sites. Nano-silver particles with their anti-bacterial agent properties could be helpful.   

This study evaluates the role of nano-silver particles on the inflammatory process of gingival suture in comparison with usual silk suture in animal model.
