The use of cyanoacrylate adhesives has been increasing in Dentistry due to the fact that it is a painless method, fast and easy to perform. The objective of this study was to report a controlled clinical case in which ethyl cyanoacrylate was used as sealant and hemostatic agent in a periodontal surgery performed on the palate. The 59-year-old patient was referred to extraction of the upper incisors. The sealing of the sockets was planned using free gingival graft obtained from two donor sites on the palate extending to the edentulous ridge. Both areas were sutured with nylon threads; one was covered with cyanoacrylate and the other with a periodontal dressing. The sites were photographed and analyzed for post-operative monitoring after 7, 14, 28, and 35 days. At all of the times, similarities were observed between the healing processes of both areas. Complete epithelialization was observed on the 28th day of monitoring. Based on these findings, it is suggested that the cyanoacrylate did not bring additional benefits to the area of donor tissue grafts, considering that the standard repair was very similar to the surgical dressing. However, its use can be justified as an alternative to periodontal dressing due to its low cost, speed, and ease of application.
