Recession of the gingiva (gums) can cause a number of dental or health problems and, unfortunately, lead to tooth loss and an unattractive smile. Because they are the body’s natural line of defense against oral bacteria, keeping your gums in good health is essential. If caught early on, gum recession can be controlled through small changes in your oral hygiene routine.

gum grafting

However, for those people whose gums have receded dramatically, gum grafting may be necessary. Dr. Pulsipher has performed hundreds of successful gum grafts. To perform this procedure a small section of tissue is removed from a nearby area, or from the roof of the mouth, and then reattached in the problem area. Please contact Riverstone Dental Care today for more information on gum grafting.
