What Is a Gum Graft?

A gum graft is a surgical procedure that treats gum recession by replacing lost tissue with healthy donor tissue, often taken from the roof of your mouth or a donor source. This procedure helps cover exposed tooth roots, reducing sensitivity and lowering the risk of gum disease.

Dr Teresa Lee and Dr Marcus will discuss your needs and help you make the best decisions for you or your family.

What to Expect During the Procedure

The gum grafting procedure is performed under local anesthesia to ensure your comfort. Your dentist will carefully place the grafted tissue onto the affected area and secure it for proper healing. Most patients experience minimal discomfort, and recovery takes about 1 to 2 weeks.
