Vestibular extension procedure results in an increase in width of non-keratinised
attached gingiva
The vestibular extension procedure is a surgical treatment that involves the
apical movement of the vestibular mucosal tissue to increase the width of
attached gingival tissue around a tooth. This procedure typically does not alter
the width of the keratinized attached gingiva, which is the tissue that is
directly connected to the tooth surface. Instead, it primarily increases the
non-keratinized attached gingival width, which is the part of the gingival
tissue that is not directly attached to the tooth but is still important for
periodontal health and aesthetics.
