Area of Science:

  • Periodontology
  • Oral Surgery

Background:

  • Soft tissue augmentation is crucial for periodontal health and esthetics.
  • Conventional free gingival grafts have limitations in achieving comprehensive tissue dimensions.

Observation:

  • A modified free gingival graft technique was applied to a patient in the mandibular anterior region.
  • The procedure aimed for both vertical and horizontal soft tissue gains.

Findings:

  • A significant increase in both horizontal and vertical gingival dimensions was observed after nine months.
  • A 3 mm vertical gain in keratinized gingiva was documented.
  • The patient reported high satisfaction with the aesthetic and functional outcomes.

Implications:

  • This modified technique offers a promising approach for substantial soft tissue augmentation in the mandibular anterior area.
  • It may enhance periodontal health and patient satisfaction in reconstructive procedures.
  • Further studies could explore long-term stability and applicability in diverse patient populations.
