Summary

The aim of this study is to compare the effect of mesial and distal adjacent gingival biotypes of the tooth / teeth region of free gingival graft (FGG) on the shrinkage ratio of graft at 6 months postoperatively.

Conditions

  • Gingival Recession
  • Atrophy

Interventions

PROCEDURE

free gingival graft

A horizontal incision was made along the mucogingival line with a scalpel number 15 to prepare a bed of periosteum and a thin immobilized connective tissue. The moving gingival tissues were removed coronally, and the bed was prepared so that the immobilized keratinized gingival tissue was preserved and the graft was placed apically. The template of the recipient region was placed in the donor region to be 2-3 mm more apically than the gingival margins of the teeth. The number of 15 scalpel was used to make incision at the template border and perpendicular to the keratinized tissue. The graft thickness was standardized in all patients between 1.5-2 mm. FGG was placed over the recipient bed and 5/0 non-resorbable monofilament sutures were used for fixing the four corners of the graft.
