Ora-Aid - Attachable Intraoral Wound Dressing is a non-eugenol wound dressing designed for use in the oral cavity. Ideal for protecting wounds after oral surgeries such as extractions, implants, bone grafts, and periodontal surgeries, Ora-Aid aids in healing by shielding the affected area from irritants such as food, bacteria, and cigarette smoke. With strong adhesion, thanks to its hydrophilic polymer composition, Ora-Aid provides a secure, self-adhesive barrier that interacts with saliva, making it easy to apply and highly effective. Its mint flavor also helps reduce bad breath, enhancing patient comfort.
How to Use Ora-Aid:
Irrigate the Wound: Clean the wound with sterile or saline solution.
Trim Ora-Aid: Cut Ora-Aid into the desired shape and size according to the wound area.
Remove Excess Moisture: Use gauze to slightly dry the wound, ensuring it’s not overly wet, as excess moisture can affect adhesion.
Apply Ora-Aid: Peel off the transparent release paper and gently press Ora-Aid onto the wound for 5 to 10 seconds to ensure it adheres properly.
Ensure Adhesion: For best results, make sure Ora-Aid adheres to hard tissue and avoid excessive moisture during application.
Key Features:
Protective Barrier: Shields wounds from food, bacteria, and cigarette smoke.
Aids in Hemostasis: Helps stop bleeding while promoting healing.
Strong Adhesion: Adheres securely to intraoral wounds using hydrophilic polymers.
Easy to Use: Self-adhesive with saliva, Ora-Aid can be cut into different shapes for perfect application.
Irritation Reduction: Protects suture threads from tongue irritation and reduces sore mouth discomfort.
Mint Flavor: Helps reduce halitosis (bad breath).
Convenient Pack: Each pack contains 20 pieces, suitable for multiple treatments.
1. Can Ora-Aid be used for sinus membrane perforation?
No, Ora-Aid is not suitable for sinus membrane perforation as it is only an external protector, not a membrane.
2. Can Ora-Aid be sutured for longer usage?
Yes, Ora-Aid can be sutured in place for extended periods. The adhesive layer lasts up to 6 hours, but suturing will keep the protective layer in place for longer durations.
3. Why might Ora-Aid not stick or fall off too quickly?
This usually happens if it’s not attached correctly. Ensure the wound is not overly moist, trim Ora-Aid to the proper shape, and press for 5-10 seconds to create a strong adhesion.
4. How long does Ora-Aid stay adhered?
Ora-Aid typically stays adhered for 6-12 hours, but this depends on the specific conditions of the wound site.
5. What materials are used in Ora-Aid?
Ora-Aid is made from polymeric materials, including Hydroxyethyl cellulose, with a water-soluble polymer adhesive side and a water-insoluble polymer protection side.
6. Can Ora-Aid be used for more than a few days?
Yes, but for extended usage, it is recommended to suture Ora-Aid following the suture protocol to keep it in place.
7. Do I need to remove the protection layer manually?
No, you don’t need to remove the protection layer manually. Ora-Aid consists of two layers: the attachment layer and the protection layer. Once the attachment layer dissolves with moisture or saliva, the protection layer will automatically fall off.
8. What should I do if Ora-Aid doesn't stick well or falls off too quickly?
This can happen due to improper application. Ensure that Ora-Aid is cut into the appropriate shape and size to fit the wound properly. It requires some moisture to adhere, but excessive moisture should be removed using gauze. After placing Ora-Aid on the wound, press gently for 5-10 seconds to enhance adhesion. Ora-Aid adheres better to hard tissue, and if applied to soft tissue, it may not last long due to muscle movement.
9. Can Ora-Aid be used without sutures, or can it be sutured inside tissue?
Ora-Aid is not intended for use inside tissue or as a membrane. It is best used externally, after sutures are placed, to protect the wound area.
