Caring for Your Gums After Gum Grafting: Tips for Recovery

Gum grafting is an important procedure that helps restore receding gums, protect exposed tooth roots, and improve the overall health and appearance of your smile. While the treatment itself is a critical step, proper aftercare plays an equally important role in ensuring a smooth recovery and lasting results.

Gum health plays a vital role in maintaining a strong and beautiful smile. When the gums begin to recede, the roots of your teeth can become exposed, leading to increased sensitivity, discomfort, and a higher risk of decay or even tooth loss. Gum grafting is a highly effective procedure designed to address these issues and restore your oral health.
