Summary

This study compares a new 'accordian' gum graft method to the standard free gingival graft for people with less than 2 mm of attached gum. The goal is to see which technique leads to better gum thickness and less discomfort. About 36 adults with missing teeth and thin gums will take part, and results will be measured 3 months after surgery.
