Gingival Graft for Increasing Gingival Thickness / Quality

The story:

Patient with thin gum tissue over dental implant which would have resulted in poor aesthetics as well as poor stability of implant over time.

Treatment:

Gum (gingival) tissue graft to augment soft tissue thickness and improve its quality. Autogenous tissue was obtained with a small incision in the palatal region.
