Overview: Reconstruction of soft tissue defect around the teeth and implants through soft tissue grafting procedures have become crucial for periodontal surgeries. The subepithelial connective tissue graft (SCTG) has been a gold standard for perioesthetic surgery and regarded as reliable and predictable. Since the surgical procedure is technically demanding, the clinician has to be well versed in diverse aspects of the procedure, including handling of the tissue, knowing the potential limitations, and avoiding complications associated with the technique. Conclusion: The easy availability, low cost, and proven efficacy of SCTGs compared to other regenerative techniques have made this a valuable approach to periodontal plastic surgery. Clinical Significance: The SCTG is inexpensive, versatile, easily available and less invasive. As it provides predictable outcomes. The superior esthetics and predictable outcomes obtained through SCTG is the gold standard for treatment of root coverage.&#13;
