TLDR
Three different soft tissue augmentation techniques used to treat severe ridge deformities in the maxillary anterior region in five patients demonstrated long-term stability following the six-month post-treatment result.
A customized subepithelial connective tissue graft for interdental papilla reconstruction and soft tissue augmentation.
TLDR
The customized subepithelial connective tissue graft may be a good choice when a lack of gingival papilla and soft tissue fullness occurs, which will be of great benefit to meet the aesthetic needs of patients.

The connective tissue platform technique for soft tissue augmentation.
TLDR
A novel subepithelial connective tissue graft technique for soft tissue augmentation in Class III ridge defects was described, able to accomplish horizontal and vertical soft tissue Augmentation in a single surgical step.
Aesthetic enhancement with periodontal plastic procedure in a class 3 alveolar ridge defect
TLDR
This article describes a procedure of surgical ridge augmentation of a localised alveolar ridge defect in the maxilla, followed by fixed partial denture, enhancing the aesthetics, function and health.
Efficacy of soft tissue augmentation around dental implants and in partially edentulous areas: a systematic review.
TLDR
SCTGs were the best-documented method for gain of soft tissue volume at implant sites and partially edentulous sites and aesthetically at immediate implant sites, better papilla fill and higher marginal mucosal levels were obtained using SCTGs compared to non-grafted sites.
Soft tissue correction of a single-tooth pontic space: a comparative quantitative volume assessment.

Recession of the soft tissue margin at oral implants. A 2-year longitudinal prospective study.
TLDR
The statistical analysis revealed that lack of masticatory mucosa and mobility of the periimplant soft tissue at time of bridge installation were poor predictors of soft tissue recession occurring during the 2 years of follow-up, but indicated in greater amount of recession in women than men, in the mandible than in the maxilla, at lingual than at facial sites and with increased initial probing depth.

TLDR
The current case reports introduce a novel, minimally invasive approach applicable for both isolated recession defects as well as multiple contiguous defects in the maxillary anterior region, using VISTA over root dehiscences to enhance periodontal healing.
The soft tissue barrier at implants and teeth.
TLDR
Analysis and comparisons made between the structure and composition of clinically healthy supraalveolar soft tissues adjacent to implants and teeth demonstrated that the periimplant mucosa which formed at titanium implants following abutment connection had many features in common with gingival tissue at teeth.
A systematic review assessing soft tissue augmentation techniques.
TLDR
APF/V is a successful treatment concept to increase the width of keratinized tissue or attached gingiva around teeth and only limited data are available favoring SCTGs over FGGs for soft tissue volume augmentation.
Coronally advanced flap with and without vertical releasing incisions for the treatment of multiple gingival recessions: a comparative controlled randomized clinical trial.
TLDR
The envelope type of CAF was associated with an increased probability of achieving complete root coverage and with a better postoperative course and Keloid formation along the vertical releasing incisions was responsible for the worst esthetic evaluation made by an independent expert periodontist.
