This document discusses soft tissue procedures related to dental implants. It begins with the anatomy and biology of peri-implant soft tissue, noting similarities and differences to periodontal tissue. Clinical examination factors for soft tissue are described, including lip line, smile line, gingival biotype, and papilla evaluation. Surgical procedures for soft tissue are outlined, including timing of the procedures in relation to implant placement. Specific techniques discussed include tissue punch, palatal pedicle flaps, and free palatal and connective tissue grafts. Indications for these procedures are provided to augment soft tissue for dental implants.
