{{Information
|Description ={{en|1=A sharp periosteal elevator is used to raise a full thickness mucoperisoteal flap. The elevator is positioned at an angle to the bone –if too flat, accidental perforation of the flap can occur. The tissue is tightly adhered at the mucogingival junction and care must be taken not to perforate the flap here. The flap raised should give good exposure to the alveolar bone overlying the tooth root. }}
