Gum graft
Gum grafting helps to address problems related to receding gums and exposed tooth roots. Patients may notice that their teeth appear abnormally longer or are often sensitive to heat and cold.
Gum recession can occur gradually or be the result of aggressive tooth brushing and even periodontal disease. Gum grafting will help prevent further tissue and bone loss, reduce tooth sensitivity, and protect the roots of your teeth from decay. If left untreated, recession can lead to tooth decay, plaque build-up and loss of supporting bone.
Aesthetically, grafts create an even gum line and give patients the confidence to talk and smile with all their teeth.
