We are concerned foremost
with your health. However, some of the procedures we perform are intended not
only to control disease, but to provide you with a cosmetic benefit. Some patients
may look older than their years because their teeth appear to be too long ("long
in the tooth"). Soft tissue grafts and other root coverage procedures are
designed to cover exposed roots and make the teeth look much better.
When gum tissue recedes
due to periodontal disease, it pulls away from the teeth. Periodontal plastic
surgery procedures can restore some coverage and dramatically improve a person's
smile.
Soft tissue grafts and
other root coverage procedures cover exposed roots and restore healthy gum
tissue. This will reduce further bone loss and recession, make the tooth less
sensitive, protect the root from root cavities, and look more natural when
you smile.
