The high labial frenal attachment in mandibular anterior segment is most commonly associated with inadequate width of attached gingiva. Insufficient attached gingiva contributed to the difficulty in oral hygiene maintenance and ultimately poor gingival health. Frenectomy, vestibular extension and gingival augmentation procedures either alone or in combination are often required to maintain adequate health of the gingiva.
Inadequate width of keratinised gingiva contributed to the difficulty in oral hygiene maintenance and ultimately poor gingival health. Frenotomy with free gingival graft (FGG) technique is most predictable in these situations.
