Experimental: curcumin gel the denuded palatal area will be superficially covered with a continuous thin layer of curcumin gel 2% one time immediately after the surgery (curcumin gel will be prepared in 2% concentration on a carbapol base)according to (Bhatia et al., 2014) |
Other: curcumin gel 2%
curcumin gel 2%

Active Comparator: gelatine sponge absorbable gelatin sponge will be cut to the palatal wound size and applied. Following manual compression of the wound area, both agents will be secured in place using compressive palatal sling sutures. commercial name (CUTANPLAST) |
Other: curcumin gel 2%

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- post-operative pain [one week post operative]
post -operative pain measured by visual analouge scale from 0 (no pain) to 10 (highest pain value)
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Soft tissue healing of the palatal wound [up to three weeks post-operative]
Soft tissue healing of the palatal wound measured by Modified Landry's wound healing score from 1 indicates poorest healing to 5 indicates excellent healing
- Re-epithelization of the palatal wound [up to three weeks post-operative]
Re-epithelization of the palatal wound using H2O2 test
