Abstract：Soft tissue augmentation is a method for soft tissue reconstruction in periodontal tissue or peri-implant tissue.Currently in clinical practice,the coronally advanced flap(CAF),connective tissue graft(CTG)and free gingival graft(FGG)are the common therapies widely used.However,autologous soft tissue transplantation has several drawbacks,such as the presence of a secondary wound,prolonged surgical time and a high incidence of postoperative pain.The de-velopment of alternative materials has garnered widespread attention.Mucograft,a new type of xenogeneic collagen ma-trix material,has become a focus of recent research due to its advantages of reducing a second wound,shortening surgical time and decreasing postoperative pain.This review focuses on the research progress in Mucograft in peridontal soft tis-sue augomentation,aiming to discuss its advantages and challenges in clinical application.
