Many techniques, approaches, and materials have been used to achieve healthy, keratinized, esthetic periimplant soft tissue or correct/augment any deficiency in it. Platelets rich fibrin (PRF) or concentrated growth factors (CGF) is one of those materials that can be used to achieve soft tissue augmentation, especially in esthetic zone.

3. Different techniques of soft tissue management

4. The New minimally invasive technique for soft tissue contour restoration

5. Ability to take the decision for soft tissue management for each case
