gum grafting
Gum grafting is a surgical procedure used to restore lost gum tissue around natural teeth or dental implants. It involves taking a small piece of tissue, usually from the roof of the mouth, and placing it over exposed tooth roots or implant surfaces. This helps protect against further recession, reduce sensitivity, and improve aesthetics.
Around implants, gum grafting enhances soft tissue thickness, creating a more natural appearance and better long-term stability.
The procedure is commonly done for patients with receding gums due to aggressive brushing, or genetics. Healing typically takes a few weeks, with minimal discomfort. A successful graft can significantly improve oral health and smile aesthetics.
