Abstract

Aim

To evaluate the application of extended nasolabial flap versus buccal fat pad graft in the surgical management of oral submucous fibrosis.

Settings and Design

This prospective study was carried out in the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Tamil Nadu Government Dental College and Hospital, Chennai.

Material and Methods

A total of 8 patients (6 men and 2 women) with age range from 21 to 65 years were selected for study. These 8 patients were randomly divided into two groups of four namely group 1 and group 2. In group 1 patients, reconstruction was planned with extended nasolabial flaps and in group 2 patients, reconstruction was planned with buccal fat pad graft respectively.

Statistical Analysis Used

Paired t test, Independent sample t test, ANOVA test.

Results

The mean preoperative mouth opening in group 1 was 8.5 mm and in group 2 was 11.75 mm. The mean increase in group 1 after one year of postoperative period was 21.50 mm and in group 2 was 24.75 mm.

Conclusions

In the present study, buccal fat pad graft proved to give better results as the interposition material as it has good patient acceptance, rapid epithelization, minimal donor site morbidity and minimal intra and postoperative complications.
