Abstract
Our objective for the case analysis was to understand the critical factors essential for the success of vestibular augmentation around implant. Though an array of procedures is available for vestibular augmentation, we used keratinized autogenous soft tissue graft for augmentation of mandibular anterior vestibule prior to implant placement. The subject was followed for 6 months prior to the procedure; however, clinically significant results were not obtained. This case report is a critical analysis of the success of vestibular augmentation procedure with free gingival grafting.
