Soft Tissue Grafting in Beverly Hills, CA
In addition to healthy teeth, maintaining healthy gums is essential. Our upper and lower gums provide a seal around our teeth and protect the tissues underneath from damage. Patients who suffer from receding gums may notice negative effects on their appearance and that their teeth are more susceptible to damage. Soft tissue grafting in Beverly Hills, CA, is a procedure that can mitigate the effects of gum recession. If you have noticed your gums receding, Dr. Roknian and our staff at Implant Dentistry By Doc Rok offer cutting-edge technology and quality soft tissue grafting near you.
What Is Soft Tissue Grafting?
Soft tissue grafting is a procedure for treating gum recession. When gums recede, the tissue surrounding a tooth pulls away from it. As a result, it can expose more of the tooth until the root is eventually visible. Gum recession is gradual, but it can damage the supporting bone and cause tooth sensitivity and potential tooth loss. Our cosmetic dentist in Beverly Hills may recommend a soft tissue graft to prevent these issues and repair any damage.
The mouth features several areas of soft tissue. A graft is a common process for treating severe gum recession and tooth root exposure. Depending on your individual needs, Dr. Roknian will carefully remove the soft tissue from the palate, the roof of your mouth, or tissue near the affected tooth and attach that tissue so the exposed tooth root is surrounded and protected.
