What Is Gum Grafting?

Dentist Katy

Gum grafting is a periodontal procedure we perform to treat gum recession and restore healthy, protective gum tissue. Gum recession occurs when the gumline pulls away from the teeth, exposing the roots. This can lead to tooth sensitivity, a higher risk of decay, and visible changes to the appearance of your smile. Gum grafting involves taking healthy tissue, often from the roof of your mouth or a donor source, and placing it over the affected areas to rebuild and reinforce the gumline.

There are several types of gum grafts, including free gingival grafts to strengthen thin tissue and connective tissue grafts designed to cover exposed roots. Each technique is selected based on your specific needs and goals. The benefits are both functional and cosmetic, helping reduce sensitivity, lowering the risk of further recession, and enhancing the overall appearance of your smile. With proper care, gum grafting can offer long-term protection and comfort. We aim to make the experience as smooth and effective as possible, giving you confidence in your oral health and your smile’s appearance.
