Why You Should Consider Gum Graft Options Today

If you’ve noticed your gums pulling away from your teeth or are experiencing tooth sensitivity, these could be early signs of gum recession. In some cases, a gum graft may be needed to protect your teeth and restore gum health. 

One effective treatment option is a gum graft—a common procedure offered at many dental clinics in Singapore, including EZ Dental Care, with clinics in Bedok North and Geylang Bahru.

How Does a Gum Graft Work?

Also known as soft tissue grafting or dental tissue grafting, a gum graft is a procedure that replaces or enhances receded gum tissue. Your dentist may use:

• Tissue from your palate (roof of your mouth)

Why You Might Need a Gum Graft

Here are the top reasons patients explore gum graft options at our dental clinic in Singapore:

• Improved Smile Appearance: Receding gums expose the tooth roots, which can make your smile look aged or uneven. Gum grafting restores natural gum lines, giving you a more youthful and attractive smile.

  
  

• Reduced Tooth Sensitivity: Exposed roots can cause discomfort to hot, cold, or sweet foods. Soft tissue grafts cover these sensitive areas, reducing pain and improving eating comfort.

  
  

• Preventing Bone Loss and Tooth Loss: Untreated gum recession can lead to bone loss that supports your teeth, increasing the risk of tooth loss. Gum grafting strengthens gum and bone health to maintain your natural teeth.

  
  

• Protecting Against Tooth Decay: Exposed roots are more vulnerable to decay since they lack protective enamel. Dental tissue grafting shields these areas from damage, helping preserve your teeth longer.

  
  

• Stopping Further Gum Recession: Early intervention with gum grafting can halt progression, especially if you have a family history of gum disease or notice initial gum recession.

When Should You Consider Gum Grafting?

You should consult a dentist if you experience:

• Tooth sensitivity near the gumline

• A visible change in gum height

• Longer-looking teeth or gaps between teeth

• Bleeding or inflammation in the gums

  
  

Early evaluation by a professional at a dental clinic in Singapore helps determine if gum grafting is needed.
