Subperiosteal tunnel assisted graft (STAG) technique: Report of two cases

A dispatch from PubMed — filed

This case report describes the clinical application of the subperiosteal tunnel-assisted graft (STAG) technique, a novel approach for peri-implant phenotype modification and keratinized tissue augmentation. Although free gingival grafts remain the gold standard for increasing keratinized tissue width, their effectiveness may be compromised by postoperative graft shrinkage or partial graft loss, often resulting from...
