Peri-implant soft tissue augmentation with a porcine collagen matrix.
A good amount and width of keratinized tissue around implants has been associated with better peri-implant health, less bone loss and improved esthetics. The purpose of this case was to evaluate a new porcine xenograft (collagen matrix) used as an interpositional graft to augment thickness of the pe...
