Abstract
The modified roll flap technique is a procedure in which a pedicled connective tissue is harvested and rolled from the palate into the oral mucosa in order to increase the peri-implant soft tissue width. This technique is effective, provides an excellent alternative for the soft tissue recovery of deficient areas, improves gingival phenotype and aesthetics. The aim of this paper is to report a clinical case in which the modified roll technique was employed along with the placement of a provisional.
