Contents - Instruments and planning - Incision - Split thickness flap preparation - Harvesting connective tissue for grafting - Palatal sutures - Transplant insertion and suture - Microsurgical suture Synopsis: Microsurgical operation to repair two adjacent, exposed root surfaces. The video demonstrates step-by-step how to prepare a coronally advanced split-thickness flap with subepithelial connective tissue. To remove connective tissue from the palate, a horizontal incision is required. Ultra-precise microsurgical suturing is the key to obtaining aesthetically perfect results.
