Abstract:
The free gingival graft (FGG) procedure using suturing techniques has been widely utilized to effectively increase the amount of attached keratinized gingiva. However, conventional suturing procedures are time-consuming and technique-sensitive. Simplified FGG procedure around teeth and dental implants using medical grade tissue adhesive (cyanoacrylate) is known to overcome drawbacks of traditional suture techniques. However, the clinical application of cyanoacrylate as a means of stabilizing the graft has not been a common practice. The aim of this report demonstrates simplified FGG procedures around dental implants using cyanoacrylate with follow-up results.
