Impact of vertical alveoloplasty on changes in keratinized mucosa width following full-arch immediate implant placement and rehabilitations: A prospective case series.

The amount of vertical alveoloplasty during implant surgery has no significant impact on the KMW. The KMW remained stable from baseline to 6 months after alveoloplasty, implant placement, and immediate rehabilitations in potential edentulous arches. The initial KMW and the distribution of implants in the anterior and posterior regions were the possible factors affecting changes in KMW.
