Abstract

Background 
Oral Submucous Fibrosis (OSMF) is a chronic, progressive, and debilitating condition 
characterized by fibrosis of the oral mucosa, leading to restricted mouth opening and an 
increased risk of malignancy. Various surgical interventions have been explored to manage 
OSMF, with the buccal fat pad (BFP) being widely used due to its excellent vascularity and 
minimal donor site morbidity. The present study evaluates the effectiveness of using the buccal 
fat pad with and without a bovine collagen membrane in the management of OSMF.
