Are Receding Gums Affecting Your Smile and Oral Health? Gum Tissue Grafting Can Help!
Gum tissue grafting is a specialized periodontal procedure designed to restore lost gum tissue, protect exposed tooth roots, and improve the aesthetics and health of your gums. At Allure Clinic, our expert periodontists use advanced techniques to treat gum recession, reduce sensitivity, and prevent further damage, helping you maintain a healthy, confident smile.

What Is Gum Tissue Grafting?

Gum tissue grafting involves transplanting healthy gum tissue to areas where gums have receded or thinned. This procedure covers exposed tooth roots, reduces sensitivity, and protects teeth from decay and further gum loss. Various grafting techniques are used depending on your specific condition, including connective tissue grafts, free gingival grafts, and pedicle grafts.

At Allure Clinic, we prioritize minimally invasive methods and precise surgical care to ensure effective results and comfortable healing.

When Is Gum Tissue Grafting Recommended?

Gum tissue grafting may be advised if you experience:

  • Gum recession exposing tooth roots, causing sensitivity or aesthetic concerns

  • Increased risk of root decay or damage due to exposed roots

  • Thin or insufficient gum tissue around teeth or dental implants

  • Areas of gum tissue loss after trauma, aggressive brushing, or periodontal disease

  • Desire to improve gum contour and smile appearance

  • Preparation for restorative dental treatments requiring healthy gum tissue

  • Prevention of further gum recession and bone loss

Our periodontists will evaluate your gum health and recommend the most appropriate grafting technique for your needs.
