The goal of this (study type: RCT) is to learn if the use of the non-submerged de-epithelized FGG will result in better esthetic outcomes in adults. The main questions that it aims to answer are:
* Does this procedure increase the width of keratinized tissue? * Does this procedure increase the depth of the vestibule? Researchers will compare this technique with the gold standard using the FGG to evaluate which technique provides better esthetics.
Adult patients: 18-60.
Insufficient width of keratinized mucosa, that is less than 2 mm.
Lower anterior areas.
Good oral hygiene.
Systemic conditions that prevent the patient from undergoing minor oral surgical procedures or hinder the healing process.
Patient undertaking radiotherapy or chemotherapy.
Smokers.
Pregnant females
