Abstract
A keratinized gingiva is important to the natural teeth and it is more essential to the health of the peri-implant mucosa of the implants. There are various surgical methods to restore a keratinized gingiva. First, a clinician could utilize apically positioned flap operation. This flap operation technique could be used as a full or partial thickness. If there is little keratinized gingival tissue available for the apically positioned flap operation, free gingival grafting should be used. Its technique sensitivity is relatively high, but using various surgical techniques and disciplines makes it simple and have the good predictability. There have been many considerations for those surgical techniques. Clinicians who treat for periodontitis or operate implant surgeries have to know the considerations and surgical methods.
Key Words: keratinized gingiva;free gingival graft;teeth;implant;
