Gum Recession Treatment in San Jose, CA

Don’t Let Gum Recession Harm Your Smile

Those who are affected by gum recession may notice their gum line pulling away from their teeth, exposing the sensitive tooth roots and compromising their tooth stability. Gum recession can occur for a variety of reasons, including gum disease, aggressive tooth brushing, an improper bite, or even genetics. When your gums recede, they no longer provide the protection and security your teeth need to stay healthy. Exposed tooth roots become more susceptible to decay and disease as they do not have the protective tissue, leading to a higher chance of infection and even tooth loss. Additionally, gum recession can cause teeth to loosen and affect the attractiveness of your smile.

This technique takes the discomfort out of gum recession treatment, since it does not involve scalpels, sutures or grafts. Dr. HagShenas makes a small hole in the gum tissue just above the site of recession and uses special tools to reposition the gums over the exposed tooth roots.
