What Is Gum Grafting?

Gum grafting is a periodontal procedure that replaces missing gum tissue around the teeth. It helps protect the roots from decay, reduces sensitivity, and creates a healthier gumline.

There are several types of gum grafts:

Connective Tissue Graft
The most common method. Tissue is taken from beneath the surface of the palate and placed over the exposed root.
Free Gingival Graft
Surface tissue from the palate is used to build up thin gums in the lower front teeth.
Pedicle Graft
Gum tissue is taken from near the recession site and repositioned to cover the exposed area.

Dr. Maher or Dr. Schepis will recommend the ideal technique for your needs, based on the severity of recession and your oral health history.

Common Questions About Gum Grafting

Why do gums recede?
Recession can be caused by gum disease, aggressive brushing, grinding, misaligned teeth, or genetics. Once the gum pulls away from the tooth, it doesn’t grow back on its own.

Is gum grafting painful?
We use local anesthesia and gentle techniques to ensure your comfort. Mild soreness may occur afterward, but most patients recover quickly with little discomfort.

How long does healing take?
Initial healing takes 1–2 weeks. Full integration and tissue blending may take a few months. We provide detailed aftercare instructions to ensure optimal recovery.

Will my graft look natural?
Yes. We carefully match the tissue to your natural gums for a seamless, healthy-looking result.
