An interventional study of Buccal fat pad flap and Buccal advancement flap in Oroantral Fistula, sponsored by Asma Noureen. Completed at 1 site in Pakistan. Open to participants aged 30 Years to 60 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2026-08-24.
Sponsored by Asma Noureen · Not applicable, Interventional, and Treatment
This randomized controlled trial compares postoperative pain following surgical closure using a buccal fat pad flap versus a buccal advancement flap. The study aims to determine whether there is a difference in postoperative pain between the two surgical techniques in patients undergoing treatment for oroantral fistula. Pain will be assessed after surgery using the study's predefined pain assessment method.
5,640 studies on the registry are indexed under Pain, Postoperative; 1,230 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 60 is below the median of 75 across 4,821 interventional studies indexed under Pain, Postoperative.

Exclusion Criteria:
Participants assigned to this arm will undergo surgical closure using a buccal fat pad flap. Postoperative pain will be assessed and compared with the buccal advancement flap group.
Procedure: Buccal fat pad flap
Participants assigned to this arm will undergo surgical closure using a buccal advancement flap. Postoperative pain will be assessed and compared with the buccal fat pad group.
Procedure: Buccal advancement flap
Surgical closure using a buccal fat pad flap. Postoperative pain will be assessed following the procedure.
Surgical closure using a buccal advancement flap. Postoperative pain will be assessed following the procedure.
Postoperative pain measured by Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)
Postoperative pain will be assessed using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) at 24 hours and 7 days after surgery. The VAS ranges from 0 to 100 mm, where 0 mm represents no pain and 100 mm represents the worst pain imaginable. Higher scores indicate greater pain and therefore a worse outcome. Pain scores will be compared between patients treated with buccal fat pad flap and buccal advancement flap.
Time frame: 24 hours and 7 days post-operation
