Soft Tissue Grafting
Transplantation or augmentation of gum tissue to cover exposed roots, thicken fragile gums, rebuild attached tissue around implants, and correct recession.
Depending on the goal, tissue is taken from the palate (connective tissue or free gingival graft) or a donor/collagen substitute is used, secured at the recipient site with fine sutures, often with PRF layered in for accelerated healing.
Gum recession and sensitive exposed roots, thin fragile tissue around implants, recession worsening around orthodontic treatment, or aesthetic concerns about the gumline.
- Covers sensitive exposed roots — relief from cold sensitivity
- Thick, healthy tissue protects implants long-term
- Halts progressive recession before roots decay/notch
- Natural-looking gumline restores smile harmony.
PRF from the patient's own blood is layered into graft sites to speed integration and comfort; laser preparation refines recipient beds with minimal trauma.
