Types of Gum Surgeries Available at Care32

Therapeutic Gum Surgeries

Pocket Reduction Surgery (Flap Surgery)

• A surgical procedure that folds back the gum tissue to remove bacteria-harboring plaque and tartar deposits from deep pockets around the teeth

• Allows for smoothing of damaged bone surfaces to eliminate areas where disease-causing bacteria can hide

• Helps the gum tissue reattach to healthy bone, reducing pocket depth and making it easier to maintain oral hygiene

• Prevents further bone and tissue loss, helping you preserve your natural teeth

Guided Tissue Regeneration (GTR)

• Advanced procedure that stimulates the regrowth of bone and tissue lost to periodontal disease

• Involves placing a special membrane between the bone and gum tissue to encourage bone regeneration

• Often combined with bone grafting materials to provide structure for new bone growth

• Helps stabilize teeth that have become loose due to bone loss

• Creates a stronger foundation for dental implants when needed

Bone Grafting

• Surgical placement of natural or synthetic bone material to replace bone destroyed by periodontal disease

• Encourages your body to regenerate new bone and supporting tissues

• Stabilizes and strengthens the foundation for your teeth

• May use your own bone, donor bone, or synthetic materials depending on your specific needs

• Critical for preserving teeth and preparing for future dental implants

Soft Tissue Grafts

• Transfers healthy gum tissue, typically from the roof of your mouth, to areas where gums have receded

• Covers exposed tooth roots, protecting them from decay and reducing sensitivity

• Reinforces thin gum tissue to prevent further recession

• Improves the appearance of your smile by creating a more even gumline

• Helps prevent further bone loss and gum recession

Cosmetic Gum Surgeries

Crown Lengthening

• Reshapes excess gum and bone tissue to expose more of the natural tooth

• Creates a broader, more balanced smile when teeth appear too short or "gummy"

• Provides the necessary foundation for restorative dentistry when a tooth needs a crown but doesn't have sufficient exposed structure

• Improves oral hygiene by making it easier to clean the area where the gum meets the tooth

• Creates proper proportions between teeth and gums for a harmonious smile

Gum Contouring

• Precisely reshapes uneven gum tissue to create a more symmetrical gumline

• Corrects a "gummy smile" by removing excess tissue that covers too much of your teeth

• Balances the proportions of gums to teeth for a more aesthetically pleasing smile

• Often performed using laser technology for minimal discomfort and quick healing

• Can dramatically transform your smile's appearance in a single appointment

Gum Depigmentation

• Removes dark spots or patches from the gums caused by excess melanin

• Creates a more uniform, pink appearance to the gums

• Usually performed with laser technology for precise results

• Minimally invasive with a quick recovery period

• Long-lasting results that enhance the overall appearance of your smile
