Full versus partial thickness flap to determine differentiation and over keratinization of non‐keratinized mucosa. A 3‐year split mouth randomized pilot study

Abstract Objectives It was shown, that Connective Tissue Grafts (CTG) retrieved from the tuberosity tends to determine hyperplastic responses and may induce a beneficial over‐keratinization of non‐keratinized mucosa. Clinically evaluate and compare CTG from tuberosity ability to increase soft tissue...
