    Objective: The purpose of this study was to compare the effects on patients’ discomfort of four different bodyguard methods for donor sites after free gingival graft (FGG) surgery. Material and Methods: This was a 2-week randomized, controlled clinical trial in single center, comparing the effects of four different cover methods on the discomfort (pain, chewing, speaking, appearance) of patients at the donor site after the FGG surgery. This study was performed on 4 groups consisting of 12 patients each. Group A, periodontal dressing (PD); group B, Essix retainer (ER), group C, modified essix retainer (MER); and group D, modified hawley retainer (MHR). A visual analog scale (VAS) was used to measure the experienced discomfort. Results: The mean VAS scores for pain were higher in group A than in the groups with retainers for both assessments, but there was only statistically significance at T1 (p>0.05). While bleeding was significantly more common in group A than in the other groups at T1 (after one week) and T2 (after two week) (p<0.05), the differences among groups B, C, and D were not significant (p>0.05). The present study showed speaking and appearance VAS scores in the PD group was lower than in the groups with retainers (p<0.05). Conclusions: The complaints about the donor site after FGG surgery may be reduced with cover techniques. New approaches are needed to reduce patients’ discomfort.
