Do I Need A Gum Graft Procedure?

                                                          

Grafting procedures can help to fix damaged gums, but a gum graft procedure is not for everyone. Here are 5 

reasons why you may want to consider having a gum graft procedure done by Dr. Denine Rice and her team. 

Keep in mind: our gums are a critical piece of the puzzle when it comes to holding our teeth in place.

When you have periodontal disease, or tissue damage, your teeth may become loose. Gum grafting can help to keep your natural teeth. Tissue is removed from the roof of your mouth or regenerated in other ways. Once the tissue is removed, it is attached to the gum area that needs to be built up, this provides the protection your teeth need to stay in place.

If the roots of your teeth are showing, a gum graft procedure can reduce the amount of sensitivity you may be 

experiencing. When gums are damaged or thin, it can cause sensitivity when eating and drinking certain foods.

Are you struggling with gum recession? This can happen when food or bacteria turns into plaque and causes 

periodontal disease. As the periodontal disease is left untreated it can make your gums recede. You may also 

experience this problem if you do not floss regularly.

Uneven gums can be embarrasing. Potential employers say they judge a potential employee by their smile. If 

you are struggling to earn the promotion you deserve and are embarrased by your smile, Dr. Rice can help.

Gum grafting can rebuild your gums in order for you to have the beutiful smile you deserve. If for any reason 

your gums are discolored, uneven, or just do not look the way you want, an evaluation with Dr. Rice might be  the first step in giving you your self confidence back.

Gum grafting is more common then one would expect. For more information about Gum Grafting and how this cosmetic procedure can enhance your healthy smile contact Dr. Rice & her team today.
