Gum Treatment
Gum Treatment
Gingival (gum) tissue protects teeth from disease and helps you have a great smile.
However, if you have extensive loss of gum tissue around your teeth, it can be the start of serious oral health problems. The exposed roots of the teeth are the result of gum recession. The recession is never normal no matter how old people are. There are many causes such as
- Periodontal disease
- Too aggressive brushing
- Anatomical susceptibility
- Position of the teeth

Gum Treatment
If the recession progresses and is not treated, it can jeopardize the cosmetics of the teeth, cause sensitivity of the teeth, dental and/or root cavities and even the loss of dental pieces.
Natural gum regeneration is the most common treatment for recession. There are several techniques to treat exposed roots, but the most common are
- Connective tissue grafts
- Gingival grafts and grafts with Alloderm®, which is an acellular dermal matrix derived from donated human tissue.
