The aim of the present case report is to demonstrate the use of thick epithelized free gingival grafting method for the treatment of a soft tissue complication occurring around dental implants placed into a fibula-free flap reconstructed mandibular defect. Desirable amount of keratinized tissue was obtained around all implants at the end of the treatment. Although graft dimensions were decreased with time, no marginal tissue movement or any other mucogingival problem were determined. The hyperplastic tissue formation was totally eliminated. The modified thick epithelialized free gingival grafting method may be a suitable alternative method for the elimination of certain mucogingival problems arising around dental implants in the presence of a scar-like tissue.
