Gum Grafting

Gum Grafting is one of the best ways to cure gum recession. It is a quick and simple surgery in which periodontists remove healthy gum tissues from the roof of your mouth and use them in your receded gum area.

What are the benefits of gum grafting?

Gum grafting done by our experienced dentists come with several advantages:

  • It strengthens the gum tissues surrounding your tooth, offering strength and stability.
  • The procedure reduces the chances of gum recession.
  • It helps to cover exposed tooth roots and reduce tooth sensitivity.
  • The results from the procedure are long-lasting, and its success rate is high too.

Gum recession primarily occurs when the gum tissues surrounding the teeth wear away, exposing more of your tooth roots. Aggressive brushing habits, ignoring oral hygiene, hormonal changes, family history of gum diseases, etc., can lead to recessed gums. It can cause tooth sensitivity, especially while eating or drinking hot or cold food. It is a very slow process, and many people do not realize that their gums are receding unless they are at an advanced stage. This is why it is vital to have regular oral check-ups at your dentist’s office in Pembroke Pines. At Dental Specialists of Pembroke Pines, you can get the best gum grafting surgery from experienced dentists with extensive knowledge in this field.
