At Middlesex Periodontics & Dental Implants, PC in East Brunswick, NJ, we provide gum grafting procedures to treat gum recession, restore a natural gum line, and protect your teeth from further damage. If you are experiencing tooth sensitivity, exposed roots, or an uneven gum line, gum grafting may be the solution for you.
Gum grafting, also known as a subepithelial connective tissue graft, is a periodontal procedure designed to rebuild and reinforce the gums. This gum tissue restoration treatment is essential for restoring lost gum tissue, preventing further recession, and enhancing the aesthetics of your smile.
Gum recession can expose the sensitive root surfaces of your teeth, making them more vulnerable to decay, infection, and damage. Common causes of gum recession include:
Aggressive brushing that wears away gum tissue.
Periodontal disease, leading to inflammation and gum loss.
Genetic predisposition to thin or receding gums.
Tobacco use, which damages gum tissue and reduces blood flow.
Orthodontic treatment, which can shift teeth and affect gum positioning.
Clenching and grinding (bruxism), which puts pressure on teeth and gums.
If left untreated, gum recession can lead to increased tooth sensitivity, cavities, and even tooth loss. Gum grafting restores gum tissue, ensuring long-term gum and tooth health.
Depending on the severity of gum recession and individual patient needs, Dr. Daniel Reich offers several types of gum grafting procedures:
Each gum graft procedure is customized to fit your needs, ensuring the best results for your gum health and smile aesthetics
Most patients experience minimal discomfort and quick healing after their gum graft surgery, allowing them to return to normal activities within a few days.
