Transplantation involves all medical procedures of transplanting cells, tissues or organs from one place to another in the same organism or another organism. In addition to preserving the health of the periodontium, which is primary, periodontal plastic surgery is increasingly using autologous soft tissue transplants to correct aesthetic irregularities. In mucogingival surgery, transplants of own origin (autologous) or from donors of another type (xenogeneic) are most often used. According to the linkage with the donor site, these transplants can be pedicle or vascular and free or avascular. According to the structure, connective grafts and epithelialized transplants are distinguished. Techniques for taking each type of transplant are divided into techniques for taking connective grafts, of which the most commonly used are the technique of one incision from the lateral palate, the technique of taking transplants from the tuberous area and the technique of taking a pedicle transplant. The second type are the techniques of taking epithelialized grafts with or without deepitelization. When applying any of these techniques, it is important to achieve uninterrupted primary healing because any complication such as intraoperative or postoperative bleeding, wound dehiscence, infection or necrosis of the lobe or transplant can lead to transplant loss and consequent failure of therapy.
