Abstract

Abstract Gingival biotype has a significant impact on the outcome of restorative and regenerative therapy. The disparity in treatment outcome is possibly because of the difference in tissue response to trauma. Hence in clinical practice identification of the periodontal biotype is significant. Gingival thickness can be assessed by various invasive and non invasive methods. Thick and thin tissues often respond differently to inflammation and trauma. Periodontal surgical technique can improve the tissue quality and treatment outcome. This review paper highlights the general aspects of gingival biotype, methods to assess gingival thickness, response to treatment, techniques to improve tissue quality and its clinical significance.
