After the recession of gum and bone tissue around teeth, they appear less aesthetic and can become more sensitive to temperature and sweets. When the softer, root portion of a tooth is exposed to the oral environment, it is also more susceptible to decay. There are a number of methods for correcting these issues. Different types of gum grafts, bone grafts and growth factors are placed in combination to obtain the most lifelike, predictable, long-lasting results for our patients. Examples of these can be seen in our photo section.
