That's fine for you.  But, for all the rest of the people reading this who want to be informed and not just make ignorant comments, "Allograft tissue, which refers to tissue from the same species, is harvested from cadaver skin that has been sterilized [b]to remove all living cells, proteins, viruses, and bacteria.[/b] Following the gum graft procedure, the donor tissue will blend well with your own gums."  https://sdperio.com/gum-graft-donor-tissue-vs-own-tissue-for-gum-recession/#:~:text=Allograft%20tissue%2C%20which%20refers%20to,well%20with%20your%20own%20gums.

Allograft is basically a scaffolding upon which your own tissue grows.  And for the lack of pain that has been involved with grafting 6 teeth (and another 6 will need it when I get around to it)... you can bet I'll use allograft again.  But, if you prefer to endure pain as a result of your anxiety... then go for it.  It's your mouth and it doesn't take as much surgical skill with your own mouth skin.[/quote]
