Gum Grafting

Gum grafting is a periodontal procedure used to treat gum recession and restore a healthier, more balanced gumline. The gums can recede due to periodontal disease, aggressive brushing, or a naturally thin biotype. Gum grafting replaces or reinforces the lost tissue, covering exposed roots and strengthening the gum support around the tooth. This not only protects the teeth but also enhances esthetics by creating a more harmonious gumline.

Gum grafting can also be used to increase soft-tissue volume around dental implants, improving stability, appearance, and long-term implant health. Because successful grafting depends on a stable foundation, good periodontal health is a prerequisite before performing the procedure. At Mind Dental, we thoroughly evaluate your gum condition to determine whether grafting is appropriate and to ensure the best possible outcome for both your natural teeth and your dental implants.
