Retrospective Study of the Association Between Peri-Implantitis and Keratinized Mucosa
1. Background: Peri-implantitis affects a high percentage of patients treated with dental implants. Among the risk factors that can cause this pathology, limited evidence exists regarding the absence of keratinized mucosa.

Xenogeneic Collagen Matrix Versus Free Gingival Graft for Augmenting Peri-Implant Keratinized Mucosa Around Dental Implants: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis [PDF]
Objectives There is a growing evidence to suggest augmenting peri‐implant keratinized mucosa in the presence of ≤ 2 mm of keratinized mucosa. However, the most appropriate surgical technique and augmentation materials have yet to be defined.

Clinical outcomes of a peri-implant keratinized mucosa augmentation procedure using concentrated growth factor: a prospective case series [PDF]
Background Adequate keratinized mucosa around implants is crucial for maintaining peri-implant hard and soft tissue health. Concentrated growth factor (CGF), a novel platelet concentrate, has been widely applied to promote tissue regeneration and wound ...

Two-stage approach for class II mandibular furcation defect with insufficient keratinized mucosa: a case report with 3 years’ follow-up [PDF]
Periodontal regenerative treatment is useful for intrabony defects and furcation involvement, but is difficult when there is insufficient keratinized mucosa to cover and maintain the regenerative material, particularly in the mandibular molar region.
