Brief Summary: There is general agreement that a thick zone of the keratinized tissues around implants promotes accurate prosthetic procedures permits oral hygiene maintenance resists recession and enables esthetic blending with surrounding tissues A new procedure called Choukrouns technique has been suggested and it consists of a combination of horizontal apical mattress suture with regular suture to increase the keratinized tissue in the mandibular arch during the first stage after implantation The proposed procedure has not been evaluated yet in a cohort of patients Therefore this study aimed to evaluate the impact of Choukrouns technique on the width and thickness of the keratinized gingiva after oral surgery
Detailed Description: A clinical trial will be conducted on patients referred to the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at the Faculty of Dentistry Al-Wataniya Private University who have been referred to undergo dental implant surgery The inclusion criteria for the study group were as follows patients with mandibular missing teeth good oral health good general health 18 to 70 years old at least 1 mm thickness of keratinized gingiva and at least 1 mm width of the attached gingiva A total of 14 patients aged 27 to 67 years will be included in the study After inserting the dental implants the suturing will be conducted according to Choukrouns method

The width and thickness of the keratinized gingiva will be assessed before surgery and at one and two months post-surgery Repeated measures Analysis of Variance ANOVA will be applied to detect significant differences between assessment times
