Examining types of gum surgery
In an article published today by Dr. Hossein Borjian's website The best gum surgeon in Isfahan compiled for you. We read that if you have severe gum disease and need gum surgery. One or more of the following treatments may be recommended for gum problems:
Soft tissue grafting :
In gum transplant surgery, a piece of soft tissue is removed from another part of the mouth and nailed to the gum to compensate for the lost gum tissue and restore the regressed gum.. This gum surgery is done for beauty or treatment of gum disease to cover the areas around the exposed tooth root and improve the beauty and health of the teeth..
Of course, in case of mild gum diseases such as gingivitis, surgery is not required and can be solved with medicine and natural mouthwashes..
Surgery to reduce the pocket around the teeth (Gum flap surgery) :
A pocket is a cavity between the tooth and the gum. In gum inflammation or infection, this groove becomes deeper and provides a suitable space for microbes. In this gum surgery, the surgeon cuts the gum and folds it up to clean the bacteria and dirt underneath it.. The gum tissue is then sutured around the tooth to grow back and surround the tooth.
Dental crown lengthening surgery :
In this procedure, the overgrown tissue covering the teeth and causing you to have a gummy smile is removed.. In this way, the gums become shorter and the teeth appear longer. This gum surgery treatment is done for smile beauty.
Gum reconstruction surgery :
In this gum surgery, an incision is made in the gum and the cut tissue is pushed aside to remove bacteria and contamination.. Then bone grafting, membrane or tissue stimulating proteins (or a combination of all three) It is placed in this place to encourage the gum tissue to regenerate.
