Gum grafting restores receding gums, reduces sensitivity, and enhances gum health for a healthier, more beautiful smile.

What are Gum Grafts?

Gum grafting, also known as gingival graft surgery, is a periodontal procedure designed to restore receding gums and improve gum health. During the surgery, the dentist or periodontist takes tissue from the patient's palate or uses donor tissue and carefully grafts it onto the areas with gum recession.

This process helps cover exposed tooth roots, reducing sensitivity, and preventing further gum recession. Gum grafts also promote gum tissue regeneration, enhancing the overall appearance and health of the gums.

The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, ensuring patient comfort. After gum grafting, proper postoperative care and maintaining good oral hygiene practices are vital for successful healing and long-term gum health.
