FRENECTOMIES
Frenectomies are safe, simple procedures that dramatically improve comfort and freedom of motion in your mouth. A frenectomy is sometimes needed for dentures to fit properly, or to maintain the results of some orthodontic treatments.
GINGIVECTOMY & GINGIVOPLASTY
Procedures that are routinely used to remove and re-contour excess gum tissue to allow better esthetic and cleansability of teeth with gingival overgrowth/enlargement.
Gum Contouring & Crown Lengthening
Your gums are like a soft tissue framework around your teeth providing support and esthetic value. Sometimes a little gentle recontouring of the gum line brings a nice boost to your smile. Plus, properly shaped gums contribute to a healthy environment that is easy to maintain and helps support your overall dental health.
Gum recession & Soft tissue Graft
When the gums pull up too high on the teeth much of the tooth’s root becomes exposed. This can cause a compromised appearance, tooth sensitivity, decay, bone loss, and possibly even tooth loss.
