Improve Your Smile & Gum Health with Grafting

Gum grafting, also known as a tissue graft, is a periodontal surgical procedure in which gum tissue is removed from one section of the mouth and moved to another area of the mouth.

Gum grafting may be done in order to protect your teeth from gum recession, a condition when gum tissue surrounding a tooth begins to pull away, exposing more of the tooth or the tooth’s root. Gum grafting can also be done to enhance or improve a smile.
