Peri‐Implant Soft‐Tissue Phenotype Modification for Refractory Peri‐Implant Mucositis: A 12‐Month Prospective Clinical Study With Ultrasonographic Analysis
Within the limitations of this study, surgical treatment of refractory PM using APF + FGG was effective in disease resolution, achieving reductions in PPD and clinical inflammation, significant gains in MT and KMW, partial recession coverage, and the re-establishment of a non-mobile band of AM. Ultrasonographic data confirmed reduced inflammatory perfusion and enhanced soft tissue stiffness in the grafted area, particularly in the most coronal region.
