Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The results of the study designed may be used to establish the benefits of knotless Barbed Suture for wound closure in oral and maxillofacial injuries which will reduce intra-operative time and provide efficient wound closure . Timepoint: patients will be followed on 1st ,3rd and 7th post-operative day to evaluate wound healing.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
patients will be followed for evaluation of wound healing and any allergy or discomfort at the site of wound .Timepoint: patients will be followed 1st and 2nd month post-operatively.
