Receding Gums

Kremer Dental Care - Receding Gum Treatment - Yuba City, California

Receding Gums is a process when the gums tissue recedes down the root surface, and you get ‘Long in the Tooth’. Exposed root surfaces can eventually lead to tooth loss if the integrity of the tissue band around the tooth is compromised. Gum Disease, or bite force problems can cause exposed root surfaces.

Tissue grafting is a very predictable procedure that can cover the root surface back with a dense band of healthy tissue to increase the life of the teeth involved.
