Soft Tissue Grafting to Increase Keratinized Tissue
Adequate amounts of keratinized tissue are required for stability of your tooth. Certain types of
dental treatment such as orthodontic therapy, crowns, fillings and removal
partial dentures require adequate amounts of keratinized tissue. Free Gingival
grafts can be done to replace lacking keratinized tissue and may also add
thickness to areas of excessively thin tissue.
