FAQS
How do I know if I need a gum graft?
Signs like tooth sensitivity, a tooth appearing longer than others, or visible root exposure are all reasons to have your gums evaluated for possible grafting.
Is gum grafting painful?
The area is numbed for the procedure, so it's comfortable throughout. Some soreness during recovery is normal and typically improves within a week or two.
How long is recovery from a gum graft?
Most patients see significant healing within one to two weeks, though complete integration of the graft tissue can take a bit longer.
Will gum recession come back after grafting?
With good oral hygiene and addressing any underlying causes, like aggressive brushing or grinding, grafted gum tissue is generally stable long-term.
