Periodontal Grafts
Periodontal Grafts
At DFC – DentoFacial Dental Clinic, we provide advanced Periodontal Grafts (Gum Grafts) to restore gum tissue lost due to recession, gum disease, or injury. Gum recession not only affects the appearance of your smile but also exposes the tooth roots, increasing sensitivity and the risk of decay. Our experienced periodontal specialists use modern grafting techniques to rebuild healthy gum tissue, protect exposed roots, improve aesthetics, and preserve your natural teeth for years to come.
What Are Periodontal (Gum) Grafts?
Periodontal grafting is a surgical procedure that replaces lost gum tissue around the teeth. Depending on your clinical condition, our specialists may recommend connective tissue grafts, free gingival grafts, or pedicle grafts to restore the gum line and strengthen the supporting tissues.
- Protects Tooth Roots: Covers exposed roots to reduce sensitivity and prevent further damage.
- Restores Gum Health: Rebuilds healthy gum tissue affected by recession.
- Improves Smile Aesthetics: Creates a more natural and balanced gum line.
- Preserves Natural Teeth: Helps maintain tooth stability and long-term oral health.
Signs You May Need a Gum Graft
Gum graft treatment is recommended for patients experiencing gum recession or advanced periodontal damage.
- Tooth Sensitivity: Exposed tooth roots causing discomfort when consuming hot, cold, or sweet foods.
- Receding Gums: Gum tissue pulling away and exposing more of the tooth surface.
- Long-Looking Teeth: Teeth appear longer due to loss of gum tissue.
- Deep Gum Pockets: Advanced gum disease causing tissue deterioration.
