Gum Grafting

Gum recession occurs when your tooth rot becomes exposed and may be a sign of gum disease, which destroys the structures that support your teeth. If you lose your gums, you can lose your teeth. Protect them with gum grafting.

This Dental Prove is measuring the recession of the gums before the Gum Grafting procedure has been performed.

The Gum Grafting Procedure has been successfully performed. The gum tissue now protects the roots of the teeth and from gum disease.

The role of gum tissue is to cover and protect the tooth root and underlying jawbone. When gum tissue recedes, the bone and other tissues that support your tooth’s root are also lost. The resulting root sensitivity may also make eating and drinking unpleasant or even painful.

Gum recession is noticeable by gum separation, allowing bacteria and toxins to travel down the roots of your teeth and into your jawbone. Gums separate from the teeth, forming pockets, which are “spaces” between the teeth and the gum. At this stage, the pockets get deeper and deeper and the bacteria becomes noticeably more toxic. Many more teeth have to be removed at the second stage.

• Sensitive teeth
• Tender Gums
• Longer looking teeth
• Exposed roots
• Loose Teeth

Significant Gum Recession:

Dr. Cohen’s patient has significant gum recession. In this image you see him smile and white teeth. His mouth in this image looks healthy and is as if there are not any problems. However, his problem is hidden in the gums, which are hidden by the lips. The images below will show the receding gums and then the healing process that follows.

Image 1: The recession you see here is only part of the problem. There is a significant recession below the gum line on the other front teeth.

Image 2: In this image, the gum line is shown 2 months after the Gum Grafting Procedure. Laser Therapy is performed on the gums to increase the thickness of the new tissue.

Image 3: This image shows healing of the gums grafts and laser surgery less than 1 month after Dr. Cohen’s treatments.

Image 4: The image shows healing of the gums grafts in 3 months. The Treatments are now completed!

Significant Gum Recession:

Dr. Cohen’s patient has significant Gum Recession in her lower front teeth. Her mouth in this image looks healthy and you do not see her gum recession problems. She takes pride in her smile and the care of her teeth.

The advanced gum recession made her more self-conscious to hide her lower teeth when smiling. She regained her confidence to smile and Dr. Cohen’s successful Gum Grafting procedure.

Image 1: The significant recession seen here in is in the lower front teeth. Her recession was caused from over brushing and prior orthodontics (braces).

Image 2: In this image the gum line is shown 6 months after the Gum Grafting procedure. Successful Gum Grafting Procedures, like the patient shown, may never need to be repeated.
