Summary

The aim of this randomized, controlled, parallel-grouped, clinical trial is to evaluate the width of keratinized gingiva after free gingival graft stabilized by titanium fixation tacs compared to traditional suturing.

Research question:

In patients with inadequate keratinized gingiva undergoing soft tissue augmentation by free gingival graft , will graft stabilization using Titanium fixation tacs affect the amount of keratinized tissue gain compared to graft stabilization using sutures ?

Conditions

  • Free Gingival Graft
  • Soft Tissue Augmentation Around Dental Implants
  • Inadequate Keratinized Tissue Around Dental Implants
