The longer you wait to do something about tissue recession, the more likely you are to have difficulties because of it. Dental sensitivity and greater oral health risks can affect you, as the portions of our teeth that are revealed when tissues move are not as strong as the structure that is meant to be uncovered. You can have a harder time fighting the accumulation of bacteria on your teeth roots, which means that you can experience issues with gingivitis and gum disease in the future if you are not already. Of course, this is also an issue that negatively impacts your appearance, as it can make your smile uneven and cause teeth to appear longer than they should be.
Through a pinhole gum grafting procedure, Dr. Kania can carefully and conservatively manipulate tissues back into place with minimal changes to the structure, and no need for suturing to ensure your successful recovery. Pin-sized holes are all that we need to make to move tissues into place. Because this process is more conservative and removes the need for suturing, you can have a shorter and easier recovery experience, and you can see the benefits of your treatment sooner!
Through the use of laser technology, our practice is able to make different services easier and more comfortable. We can directly take on periodontal disease by using lasers to remove bacteria and unhealthy tissues. By taking this approach, we can preserve healthy tissues with greater ease, make the treatment itself more comfortable, and shorten your healing time. We also rely on lasers when we perform jawbone grafting services that help patients qualify for dental implant placement.
The sooner you do something about gum line recession, the sooner you can put trouble with your appearance and health behind you! If you would like to learn more about this or another service, call Dr. Kania’s laser periodontal office in Encinitas/San Diego, CA, at (760) 642-0711.
