Abstract
Since 1967 the biological rationale essential to wound healing was intensely and thoroughly instilled in me by you, Dr. M.P. Ruben.
Had I to draw a unique rule of thumb in any surgical approach, the adjective "biologic rationality" would be it.
Our objectives in this study on an academic basis are succinctly to:
a. compare wound healing of free gingival grafts placed on denuded and decorticated (viz perforated) bone,
b. determine the origin of the newly formed tissue,
c. evaluate and compare histologically the tissue (e.g. osseous) changes that may occur in both procedures, and
d. investigate, in either performance, the type of attachment at graft-bone interphase level.
However, I would like to broaden the scope of our conclusions and, most of all, highlight the local tissue morbidity factors inherent to the application of such procedures.
Upon reading and analyzing the literature related to the subject at hand I was struck by the blunt determination of some authors to "get, so to speak, that graft bound down unequivocally to bone," discounting bone itself (Brackett, et al, 1970; Dordick, et al, 1976; James, et al, 1978; Bissada, et al, 1978.)
