case_images: By the means of this plain gut suture, the buccal soft tissue flap, 10 mm below free margin, was grasped and sutured to the lingual mucosa [Figure 2].
case_images: Essig wiring supporting the sutures. Vertical mucosal tear in the midline heals by secondary epithelialization

case_images: Furthermore, despite of the intact remaining lower anterior teeth and supporting bone, Essig wiring technique was applied to support the mucosal free edge suturing [Figure 3].
case_images: Four weeks after treatment; excellent healing of gingiva. Note the scar tissue in the center of the lip that healed by secondary intention
