Full - thickness flap with a c-shaped excisional incision

In case where there is adequate soft tissue, both in terms of papillary height and labial bulk, the excision of the epithelium around the attached abutment can be carried out accurately so that the flap fits back to provide full coverage. The amount of tissue excised will influence the gingival margin of the transitional restoration, which can later be altered to further influence the marginal contours of both the labial and interstitial aspects.
