Abstract

Wound healing mechanism is a primary healing process which has relatively little interaction and has no classification about the healing process of the oral cavity. The mechanism of healing includes sequence of biological processes, where the tissues show identical pattern with reduced scar. Saliva in the mouth forms a warm humid suitable and favourable condition for the healing process in a normal healthy person and an immunocompromised person adding the factors affecting wound healing process. Better understanding about the healing would provide information for identifying the issues which will end up in impoverished wound healing in the oral cavity.
