Sumario:Introduction: a good condition of the soft tissues is necessary for the longevity of treatments with dental implants. The peri-implant soft tissues are similar to the protection periodontium, being important to offer a barrier against bacterial aggression to bone tissue. Objective: the objective was to conduct a literature review on the importance of the keratinized mucosa in implantology; analyzing the relationship between gingival maintenance and peri-implant health. Methodology: databases were accessed to conduct research on articles published in the Dental literature, in Portuguese and English, mainly between the years 2010 to 2019. The databases accessed were: LILACS, PUBMED, Scielo and the Brazilian Digital Library Theses and Dissertations (BDTD). The keywords used were: osseointegration AND periodontics AND mouth mucosa AND gingiva. Discussion: several studies, from animal studies to systematic literature reviews, were carried out to evaluate the role of keratinized tissue in implantology, and observed that this tissue acts positively, with improvement of peri-implant sealing, reduction of local inflammation, improvement in the performance of local hygiene and less cases of tissue recession. Conclusion: it is concluded that the keratinized tissue is fundamental for periimplant health, acting both in the oral health of the rehabilited patient, as well as in its aesthetics and functionality.
