Gum Recession Treatment
Specialized treatment to stop and reverse gum recession before it leads to tooth sensitivity or bone loss.
A clinical treatment that addresses the gradual pulling back of gum tissue from the teeth, stopping further recession and restoring coverage to exposed roots before sensitivity or bone loss worsens.
The underlying cause of recession is addressed first, then a gum grafting or pinhole technique is used to restore coverage over exposed roots and rebuild a healthy, protective gumline.
Stops recession from progressing, reduces root sensitivity, and restores protective gum coverage before bone loss or tooth loss can occur.
Frequently Asked Questions
Patients with visibly receding gums, exposed root surfaces, or increased tooth sensitivity who want to stop the progression of recession and restore a healthy gumline.
The underlying cause is addressed first, then the grafting or pinhole procedure is performed to restore gum coverage. Tenderness subsides within one to two weeks and the final tissue result continues to improve over several months.
The initial visit addresses the cause, and the grafting or pinhole procedure is completed in a second appointment. Tissue tenderness resolves within a week or two, with final results visible over several months.
Addressing the cause of recession — such as aggressive brushing or bite issues — is just as important as the grafting procedure itself. Without correcting the underlying cause, recession can return even after successful treatment.
Tenderness following the grafting or pinhole procedure typically resolves within one to two weeks. The tissue continues to mature and improve in appearance over the following few months.
