Soft tissue grafting (also known as gum grafting) is a very common and well-research procedure to restore and repair your gums. It is typically done when there is receding gum issue or part of the roof from the tooth is exposed.
During the procedure, the periodontist will use various biomaterials to place under the receding gum area to support and restore. The grafting will act as a strong foundation to support the area and promote regeneration over the time and return the gum to its original position.
Over the next three to six months, the biomaterials will replace by your own gum tissue and the overall gumline will be improve. Having a soft tissue grafting procedure will not only increase the aesthetically of the gumline and have a perfect smile, but it can also decrease the pain or discomfort by covering the exposed tooth roof and protect your teeth from further damage. It can also reduce the tooth sensitivity and promote the overall gum health by preventing the bone loss.
