COSMETIC MANAGEMENT OF RACIAL INTRA-ORAL PIGMENTATION USING AUTOGENOUS DERMIS GRAFT: AN EXPERIMENTAL STUDY
 
Document Language : English 
Abstract : This study aimed at evaluating the applicability of autogenous dermis graft in treatment of extensive intraoral racial pigmentation. Six adult male mongrel dogs with extensive intraoral pigmentation on the attached and relining mucosa were used. 'They' were divided intOtwo groups; in the first group, excision of a rectangular 2x3 cm pigmented buccal mucosa wasperformed and the bed was reconstructed using an autogenous dermis graft. While in the second group thepigmented mucosa over the lower anterior region (between the two canines) was excised through supraperiosteal dissection and then replaced by an autogenous dermis graft. All cases healed well and the grafted areas showed absence of pigmentation and appeared mucosal-like during the follow up period. Thus the problem of the extensive unsightly intraoral pigmentation can be successfully and permanently managedbyautogenousdermisgrafts.
