Abstract

Surgical wound dressings have been used over for the purpose of protection of surgical wounds, to prevent postoperative infection and to promote wound healing. Periodontal dressings, also known as periodontal packs, are able to provide similar beneficial effects as when they are applied after surgery. They can be categorized as eugenol- based dressings and noneugenol dressings. Many modifications have been made to improve their physical and therapeutic properties. The purpose of this paper is to review the periodontal dressings and there physical and chemical properties.
