Objectives: The lack of oral mucosa in oral and maxillofacial surgery for intraoral grafting after trauma or tumor resection can be balanced by tissue-engineered oral mucosa. The aim of this study was to generate a tissue-engineered oral mucosa equivalent (OME).
Study Design: First, primary oral fibroblasts were cultured for 7 days on different materials: Tissufoil E (TFE), dermal regeneration template (DRT), and Vicryl.
