Abstract

This clinical report describes the surgical management of a patient with a deficiency of keratinized tissue around implants placed in positions 3.5 and 3.6. Insufficient keratinized tissue can compromise peri-implant health, hinder oral hygiene, and increase the risk of inflammation and marginal bone loss. To address this condition, a free gingival graft (FGG) harvested from the palate was performed to enhance the amount of keratinized gingiva and improve peri-implant conditions. The procedure included careful surgical planning, preparation of the recipient site, and suturing of the graft in place. Specific postoperative instructions were provided, and short- and mid-term follow-ups were conducted to evaluate graft integration and esthetic and functional outcomes.
