How Gum Grafting Works
Receding gums expose the roots of your teeth, increasing sensitivity and the risk of decay, infection, and even tooth loss. Gum grafting involves taking healthy tissue, often from the roof of your mouth or a donor source, and carefully placing it over the exposed areas. This not only restores the gumline but also protects your teeth and improves your smile’s aesthetics.
Why Gum Grafting with Breeze?

What causes gum recession?
Gum recession can be caused by gum disease, genetics, aggressive brushing, teeth grinding, or trauma to the gums.

The procedure is performed under local anesthesia to ensure your comfort. Sedation options are also available. Some patients experience mild soreness during recovery, which can be managed with prescribed or over-the-counter pain relievers.
