Gum Recession Treatment - Chelmsford, MA
Restore Balance, Reduce Sensitivity
Reverse Your Gum Recession
Gum recession makes a smile look unattractive, feel uncomfortable, and become unhealthy. It occurs when the gums at the base of the teeth begin to shrink, exposing the tooth roots underneath. These roots may be more of a yellow shade than the rest of the enamel, and are softer, which makes them more prone to temperature sensitivity, decay, and damage.
Due to multiple factors including gum disease, tobacco use, heredity, and teeth grinding, gum recession requires treatment. It won’t go away on its own. At Chelmsford Dental Group, our experienced periodontal team, including our board-certified periodontist, regularly screens for indications of recession. If we find any, we offer proven treatment for gum recession in Chelmsford, MA to restore your gums to a healthier state and a more flattering, youthful smile.
Typical Symptoms of Gum Recession
Our Proven Approach to Gum Recession Reversal
Our board-certified periodontist—a recognized gum health expert with advanced training—uses gum grafting to restore tissue lost to gum recession. This proven technique involves taking healthy tissue from your own mouth or another safe, suitable biocompatible source and attaching it over exposed tooth roots. This enables us to restore a recessed gumline to a healthy, youthful level. Our periodontal team carefully and precisely harvests gum tissue and sutures it to the gums around a recessed area. During healing, the newly grafted tissue integrates completely with the existing gums for a seamless smile with no sign of gum recession.
