Gentle care and lasting relief for receding gums
Gum recession can be uncomfortable, even alarming, especially when your teeth begin to feel more sensitive or look longer than before. We understand how concerning these changes can be.
At Brighthouse Dentistry and Implants, we’re here to help you restore your gum health and confidence with our Belmont gum grafting treatment. Whether you’re experiencing discomfort, cosmetic concerns, or both, our caring team is ready to guide you toward a healthier smile.
Soft tissue grafting
We gently place donor or tissue grafts to cover exposed roots and rebuild lost gum tissue, improving protection and aesthetics.
Reduced sensitivity
By covering exposed root surfaces, gum grafts help reduce sensitivity to hot, cold, and sweet foods and drinks.
Improved oral health
Restoring the gumline protects against further gum recession, bone loss, and decay along the roots of your teeth.
Natural-looking results
Our precise grafting techniques ensure that the new gum tissue blends seamlessly with the surrounding area.
