Gingival recession is a common clinical problem for which patients often consult with the dental practitioner. Soft tissue grafts are highly predictable procedures to correct mucogingival deficiencies around natural teeth and dental implants. This hands-on workshop uses pig jaw models where participants will be able to perform conventional free gingival grafts as well as subepithelial connective grafts for root coverage. Additionally, participants will practice edentulous ridge augmentation with soft tissue for ovate pontic development on tooth and implant-supported restorations.
