[Technic and possible uses of mucosal transplantation in reconstructive surgery of the mouth].

In preprosthetic interventions, optimal denture support may be obtained by means of full-thickness buccal mucosa grafts. In mucogingival surgery, buccal mucosa grafts may be used to form mucosal areas which rest firmly on the alveolar process and show no measurable tendency to shrink. Plastic repair by means of mucosa grafts is also possible after excision of verrucous carcinomas and precancerous lesions of the tongue and cheek.

Gingivectomy↗

Interdisciplinary management of a common esthetic complaint.

Esthetic restoration of the maxillary anterior dentition often requires an integrated perio-restorative team approach. Careful attention to treatment planning and treatment sequencing is essential in ensuring a desirable outcome and a satisfied patient. Detailed measurements, diagnostic wax-ups, surgical mock-ups, and stents all are effective communication tools which can be used to enhance interdisciplinary communication. These concepts and treatment modalities are illustrated in this case report.

Soft and hard tissue resection in periodontal therapy.

The stabilization of inflammatory periodontal diseases (gingivitis and periodontitis) and result periodontal maintenance is achieved most effectively by first establishing health within the dento-gingival complex (connective tissue, junctional epithelium, and sulcus). Two forms of surgical periodontal therapy commonly employed to reach this endpoint are resective in nature:, the gingivectomy/gingivoplasty technique for soft tissue resection and the ostectomy (osteoectomy)/ osteoplasty approach for hard tissue resection. These two forms of therapy are presented here from a historical perspective through to today's accepted methodology. The are agumented by literature references and presentations of clinical cases.
