Cosmetic Periodontal Surgery


A bright smile after Periodontal surgery Cosmetic periodontal procedures are a way to cover unsightly, sensitive, or exposed root surfaces and to prevent future gum recession. If you are unhappy with the appearance of short, unsightly teeth this can be greatly improved by a combination of periodontal procedures by Dr. Weiss and cosmetic dentistry by your restorative dentist.

Although your teeth appear short, they may actually be the proper length. The teeth may be covered with too much gum tissue. We can correct this by performing the periodontal plastic surgery procedure, crown lengthening. During this procedure, excess gum and bone tissue are reshaped to expose more of the natural tooth. This can be done to more than one tooth, to even your gum line, and to create a beautiful smile.

Another cosmetic procedure is soft tissue grafting. It is used to cover unattractive tooth roots, reduce gum recession, and protect the roots from decay and eventual loss.

Bone grafting following tooth loss can preserve the socket/ridge and minimize gum and bone collapse. There is less shrinkage and a more aesthetic tooth replacement for either an implant crown or fixed bridge around the replacement teeth.

For more information about crown lengthening, gum grafting, and bone grafting, please refer to their individual procedure page for an in-depth description.
