What is Gum Recession?
The gum tissue around the teeth can wear away or pull back, exposing the root of the tooth. This can cause a variety of dental problems, such as increased tooth sensitivity and root decay. It can also compromise aesthetics. Factors such as genetics, aggressive tooth-brushing, hormonal changes, and misaligned or crooked teeth can cause gum recession.
Benefits of Gum Recession Treatment
There are many benefits to seeking treatment for gum recession. Arverne Dental offers gum recession treatment that has many benefits.
Preserving Tooth Structure: Gum recession exposes sensitive roots, increasing decay risk and damaging the tooth structure beneath. Treatment of gum recession helps protect teeth from further erosion and possible tooth loss, preserving your natural smile.
Reduced Sensitivity to Hot, Cold, and Acidic Foods: Exposed root surfaces can lead to increased sensitivity to foods, drinks, and acids. The gum recession treatment covers and protects these sensitive areas, reducing discomfort and allowing you to enjoy foods and beverages without pain.
Improved Aesthetics: Deciding gums may make your smile appear shorter or uneven, and your teeth will look longer. The pinhole technique or gum grafting can improve the smile’s aesthetics and restore a more symmetrical line. This will boost your self-esteem and confidence.
Improved Gum Health: If left untreated, gum recession can cause gum inflammation, infection, and bone loss. Treatments that address gum recession and restore healthy gum tissue can reduce the risk of developing gum disease and improve gum health.
Preventing Further Damage: If left untreated, gum recessiveness can lead to further tissue loss, tooth mobility, and even tooth loss. Early intervention is necessary to stop the progression of gum recession. This will prevent further damage and preserve your oral health in the long run.
Long-Term Dental Health Benefits: Treating gum recession improves immediate dental health and oral health in the long term. Treatments that address underlying issues, restore healthy gum tissue, and promote optimal oral hygiene will set the stage for a lifetime of healthy smiles.

Treatment Options for Gum Recession
Arverne Dental understands the importance of treating gum recession to restore your gums' health and appearance. We provide various treatment options that will meet your needs and produce lasting results. We offer a range of treatment options, including:
-
Gingivation:
A gum grafting procedure is designed to replace lost tissue due to gum recession. During this procedure, Dr. Lyuba Taft will harvest healthy gum tissue and graft it to the areas that are experiencing a recession. This newly transplanted gum tissue covers and protects exposed tooth roots. It reduces sensitivity and improves the appearance of your gingiva. Treating moderate to severe gum recession can be achieved with gum grafting. It is highly effective and provides long-lasting results.
-
Pinhole Surgical Method (PST):
The PST procedure is a minimally invasive option to traditional gum grafting. It offers many advantages, including less discomfort and quicker healing. During the PST, Dr. Taft creates small pinhole incisions on the gum tissue around the affected teeth. She uses specialized tools to gently loosen the gum tissue and then reposition it to cover the exposed root surfaces. This innovative technique does not require sutures, and the post-operative pain is minimal. You can return to normal activities immediately. PST is a great option for patients who are looking for a non-invasive way to treat mild or moderate gum recession.
-
Periodontal Treatment:
Comprehensive periodontal treatment may be required to treat the infection and stop further tissue loss in cases of gum recession caused by periodontal disease. This can include scaling and root planning (deep cleaning), which removes plaque and tartar below the gum line, antibiotic therapy to eliminate bacteria, and regular maintenance visits for monitoring your gum health. Periodontal treatment is vital for treating gum disease, preserving your gums' health and supporting structures
Arverne Dental believes in personalized care, tailored treatment plans, and addressing your concerns to achieve optimal results. You can trust Dr. Lyuba Taft to provide exceptional care, whether you need gum grafting or PST.
