Abstract

Gingiva, with its unique texture and coral pink color, is the most delicate tissue in the oral cavity and the first essential component of the periodontium. Keratinized Gingiva is presumed desirable because it influences the outcome of all the periodontal treatments. The connective tissue grafts were used in varying situations in the present report, the goal being to re-evaluate the predictability of traditional skills of augmentation in the peri-implant and periodontal domain. It’s high time the traditional knowledge and today’s innovative biomaterials forge a definite science wherein a regeneration of ravaged soft tissues is irrefutable.

Keywords: Keratinized Gingiva; Regeneration Root Coverage; Tunnel Preparation
