Oral suture wounds heal faster because of certain substances in saliva that can sterilize, rich blood circulation, as well as stronger cell proliferation.
1. There is a large amount of lysozyme in saliva, lysozyme has strong bactericidal effect, can reduce the chance of wound infection, provide a good environment for the wound in the oral cavity area, so as to make the wound heal more quickly.
2. The blood circulation in the oral cavity is quite rich, which can make the inflammatory exudate in the wound quickly absorbed, and accelerate the metabolic rate of the cells in the injured area, thus greatly enhancing the speed of oral wound healing.
3. The proliferation of oral mucosal cells is strong, due to the expression of biological factors in the oral cavity has a special, resulting in enhanced cell proliferation and regeneration, which can help rapid wound healing; in addition, it also has the effect of inhibiting inflammatory response, so the mucous membrane of the oral cavity is rarely scarred after injury.
It should be noted that the oral cavity already contains a large number of bacteria, so during the period of injury, we should pay extra attention to maintain good oral hygiene, otherwise it may cause wound infection.
