What is gum graft surgery?
If you are concerned about receding gums and the impact this can have on both your oral health and appearance, gum graft surgery can be a safe and effective option. When gums recede, teeth often appear longer than normal and can become sensitive due to the root exposure. Gum graft surgery reduces gum recession and bone loss, protects against tooth decay, and gives you an overall attractive and confident smile.
We offer a range of gum recession surgery techniques to suit the needs of every patient. These include connective-tissue grafts, which are ideal for root exposure, free gingival grafts, which can help bulk thin gums, and pedicle grafts, which involves gum being pulled over the root and sutured in place. During a consultation, we can work out which method is best for you.
