Yes!!! Both teeth and implants need a keratinized Band of attached gingiva to prevent bacterial and particle infiltration. These are basic concepts that should’ve been taught in dental school.

Given where the crown margin is I would say the tooth would benefit greatly from a gingival graft. If there is no crown margin or it could be 2mm coronal to the gingival margin- it may be more stable

For implants, there was nothing there prior to the implant being placed, so it can truly be mucosa up to the margin which is not great. With a natural tooth there is often a very thin gingival margin even if you don’t see it doing this cheek-pulling technique.

Where’s the bone level? You can’t just stack a graft onto nothing. And there’s no KG so success is poor at best.
