Orabase Promotes Oral Epithelization in a Wound Healing Rat Model: An Immunohistochemical Study

Recent evidence suggests that bone marrow-derived stem cells may have an important role in the natural process of wound healing. The aim of the present study was to examine the effect of orabase paste application on primary wound healing in a palatal rat model.A total of 48 six-month-old male Wistar rats weighting 427 to 650 g were included. A mid-crestal incision was made on the maxillary alveolar ridge. A full-thickness flap was raised on...
