Mucosal thickness, lamina propria thickness (defined as the extent of subepithelial portion of the biopsy containing \u226425% or \u226450% FGT), and proportions of CT and FGT were semi\u2010automatically estimated for the entire mucosa and for CTGs virtually harvested by split\u2010flap (SF) preparation minimum 1 mm deep or after deepithelialization (DE).\n                  <\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>\n                    <jats:bold>Results:<\/jats:bold>\n                    Palatal mucosal thickness, ranging from 2.35 to 6.89 mm, and histologic composition showed high interindividual variability. Lamina propria thickness (\n                    <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                    &gt;0.21) and proportions of CT (\n                    <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                    = 0.48) and FGT (\n                    <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                    = 0.15) did not differ significantly among the donor sites (anterior, posterior, marginal, apical). However, thicker palatal tissue was associated with higher FGT content (\n                    <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt;0.01) and thinner lamina propria (\n                    <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u22640.03). Independent of the donor site, DE\u2010harvested CTG contained a significantly higher proportion of CT and a lower proportion of FGT than an SF\u2010harvested CTG (\n

Despite high interindividual variability in terms of relative tissue composition in the hard palate, DE\u2010harvested CTG contains much larger amounts of CT and much lower amounts of FGT than SF\u2010harvested CTG, irrespective of the harvesting site.\n
