While traditional staged protocols, involving vertical ridge augmentation and soft tissue grafting, are effective, they are complex, time\u2010intensive, and often not well\u2010received by patients. This case report presents a simplified approach that combines immediate guided bone regeneration (GBR) using a rotated pedicled palatal flap to achieve primary closure without requiring buccal flap advancement, thereby preserving vestibular depth and keratinized mucosa.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Two systemically healthy, non\u2010smoking male patients with grade 3 endo\u2010periodontal lesions in the maxillary molar area underwent flapless extraction. This was followed by immediate guided bone regeneration (GBR) using deproteinized bovine bone mineral and a resorbable collagen membrane, which was sealed with a pedicled palatal flap. In both instances, this technique successfully stabilized the graft and achieved primary wound closure.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Implant placement was performed 6 months later with minimal intervention required.

Traditional treatment usually requires several complex surgeries to restore bones and gums, which can be time\u2010consuming and uncomfortable for patients. In this report, we describe a simpler, less invasive approach that allows reconstruction of both bone and gingiva after the extraction of a severely damaged tooth. After removing the damaged tooth, the empty socket was filled with a bone substitute material and covered with a thin connective tissue layer taken from the patient's own palate. This layer acted like a natural bandage, protecting the graft and allowing the area to heal without pulling or stretching the gum tissue. Six months later, dental implants were placed and remained stable over a 3\u2010year follow\u2010up period. The patients were pleased with the results and experienced minimal discomfort. This method may offer clinicians a straightforward and patient\u2010friendly option to rebuild bone and gum tissue at the same time in difficult cases, although larger studies are needed to confirm its long\u2010term success.<\/jats:p>\n
