Extraction of teeth with unfavorable prognosis, followed by dental implant placement, has become an acceptable treatment option. However, dental implants are not indicated for young people with growing jaws. Consequently, it is recommended that clinicians prioritize the preservation of natural dentition in younger patients and defer implant therapy until skeletal growth has ceased. In cases where tooth preservation is attempted despite severe periradicular defects, a surgical approach is often required to manage associated symptoms. However, modern periradicular surgery frequently leads to unaesthetic complications such as conspicuous scar formation or gingival recession.

The success of the technique relies on precise recipient site preparation, meticulous graft handling, and an optimized suturing protocol to ensure firm adaptation and immobilization to prevent micro-movements that could compromise healing. This case report introduces the 'Fishnet suture,' a novel microsuturing technique designed to enhance graft stabilization and provide uniform tension distribution. The approach utilizes a continuous interlocking suture with both vertical and horizontal components, creating a mesh-like pattern that anchors the graft to the periosteal bed, eliminating dead spaces, and promoting revascularization. The technique was applied in three clinical cases: a patient with multiple adjacent gingival recession defects in the anterior region of the mandible, a patient presenting peri-implant soft tissue deficiencies, and a patient with an insufficient width of keratinized tissue at an edentulous ridge. Postoperative healing was uneventful throughout, resulting in significant increase in keratinized tissue width.
