Suturing a graft in the oral cavity is rather cumbersome. Not only do the edges have to be sutured but also the graft has to be opposed firmly to the wound by quilting stitches. This is a time consuming procedure and can be technically demanding. The loss of an intraoral graft leads to contracture and post operative trismus and a reduced maximal inter incisor distance. We have been using a simple technique for skin graft fixation in the oral cavity, which in our opinion is quick, works extremely well and consistently gives good results.
