Reconstruction techniques for soft tissue defects around teeth are a challenge for any clinician. These procedures require a detailed knowledge of the anatomy, vascularization, gingival phenotype, as well as the development of skill and surgical precision.

For more than 15 years, we have used different microsurgical approaches for the treatment of gingival recessions and soft tissue optimization with different approaches, obtaining different results and observing their evolution over time.

In the last decade, we have also been implementing the tunnel and modified tunnel techniques in different clinical scenarios, advancing in the protocols for the treatment of gingival recessions according to the learning of different schools; also beginning to extrapolate the same concepts to gingival augmentation treatments, reconstruction of the papilla and implants in the aesthetic zone.

This course aims to provide the student with theoretical and practical knowledge for the use of tunneling techniques, enhancing surgical skills with procedures explained step by step. In this way, participants will be able to apply these procedures in their usual practice in different clinical scenarios in a predictable way.
