Grafts

Soft tissue grafts are sometimes performed to treat gum disease, or correct other abnormalities.

The procedure involves taking gum tissue from the palate or another donor source to cover an exposed root in order to even the gum line and reduce sensitivity.

Periodontal procedures are available to stop further dental problems and gum recession, and to improve the aesthetics of your gum line.  For example, an exposed tooth root resulting from gum recession may not be causing you pain or sensitivity, but is causing one or more of your teeth to look longer than the others. In other cases, an exposed tooth root causes severe pain because it is exposed to extremes in temperatures or different kinds of food and liquids.

Once contributing factors are controlled, a soft tissue graft procedure will repair the defect and help to prevent additional recession and bone loss.

    "My husband and I recently started treatment with Dr. Wang and have found him to be an excellent dentist.  We have found him to be cordial and professional, knowledgeable and extremely thorough.  What has been most refreshing is that he takes his time to explain his evaluation …  pointing out issues to be addressed.  During procedures he explains what he is doing and what to expect; he also checks throughout to make sure we are comfortable.  Also, with any concerns we have had, he has called personally on the phone to discuss them.  We have been very pleased with Dr. Wang’s care of our dental needs."
