The modified buccal pedicle flap

Dr. Giorgio Tabanella

The modified Buccal Pedicle Flap introduced by Giorgio Tabanella is a minimally invasive peri-implant soft tissue augmentation technique that utilizes a vascularized buccal pedicle flap combined with volume-stable collagen matrices to enhance mucosal thickness and keratinized tissue without the need for connective tissue grafting. The approach enables three-dimensional soft tissue reconstruction, improves peri-implant stability and esthetics, and significantly reduces patient morbidity, making it particularly suitable for complex and multi-implant cases.
