Mucogingival defects are most frequently consequences of periodontal or peri-implant disease and/or tooth loss. The end result is the loss of alveolar bone accompanied by a decrease in volume of the soft tissue: gum, peri-implant mucosa and/or mucosa of the alveolar ridge. Bone defect adjacent to the tooth can be classified as a one-, two- or three- wall defect. The most common defects of the soft tissue are gingival recessions. Soft tissue manipulation around implants includes techniques for the increase of the width of the attached gingiva, and techniques for the increase of the soft tissue volume around the implant. Defects of the alveolar ridge occur as a consequence of the periodontal disease, trauma or traumatic extraction. The classification of the resorbed ridge is based on the estimate of the vertical and horizontal reduction in ridge dimensions. Materials used for soft tissue augmentation provedures are free gingival graft, partially epithelialized free gingival graft, connective tissue graft, pedicular connective tissue graft, PRF and xenogenic collagen tissue matrix. The combinations of soft tissue grafts with bone grafts are very frequent in clinical practice. Grafts are usually harvested from the palate. Golden standard is the CTG. The basic difference between FGG and CTG is that FGG includes the epithelium which due to inferior aesthetics results presents the major defect of this graft. Pedicular connective tissue graft is a type of CTG whose advantage is a good vascular supply. Defects adjacent to the tooth, depending on the Miller classification, are regularly treated with soft tissue grafts, and the most successful technique is CTG covered by coronally advanced flap. Defects adjacent to the implants measuring up to 2 mm are augmented with CTG + CAF. If defects are greater, it is recommended to augment with bone grafts. Soft and/or hard tissue of edentulous ridge may also be augmented. Procedures used to augment soft tissue are the roll technique, CTG and onlay grafts. Finally, to augment bone tissue, the most commonly used technique is bone grafts with membranes.
