I had a frenectomy and gum graft on tooth 24 about two and a half weeks ago. When I went back for follow up the periodontist said he wished he had been able to cover more of the root. So I'm just wondering, what would have prevented him from covering the root more?

volume persistance and availability always remain a concern in alloderm surgery.. surgeons themselves determine the degree of volume and use larger pieces of alloderm or multiple layers, depennding upn the degree of gums recession.
