What is Gum Grafting?

Gum grafting is a surgical procedure used to treat gum recession and restore lost gum tissue. During the procedure, gum tissue is taken from another area of the mouth or a donor source and grafted onto the receded areas, covering exposed tooth roots and reducing sensitivity.

Types of Gum Grafting

• Connective Tissue Grafting (CTG): In CTG, a small flap of tissue is taken from the roof of the mouth (palate) and stitched onto the gum recession site. This technique is often used for root coverage and to increase the thickness of the gum tissue.
• Free Gingival Grafting (FGG): FGG involves taking a thin layer of tissue directly from the palate and grafting it onto the receded gum area. This technique is typically used to increase the height of the gum tissue and is especially effective for areas with thin or fragile gums.

Benefits of Gum Grafting

• Improved Gum Health: Gum grafting can reduce the risk of gum disease and decay by covering exposed tooth roots and protecting them from damage.
• Enhanced Aesthetics: By restoring gum tissue, gum grafting improves the appearance of your smile and can help you regain confidence.
• Reduced Sensitivity: Covering exposed tooth roots can alleviate tooth sensitivity to hot, cold, and sweet foods and beverages.
