Different tissue biotypes respond differently to inflammation and to surgical and restorative treatment; consequently, it is crucial to identify tissue biotype before treatment. Special care must be taken when treatment planning for cases with a thin gingival biotype. This article reviews the characteristics of various gingival biotypes and the many ways to determine them.
