Gum Grafting and Recession Treatment
Gum recession is a subtle process that can significantly affect the health and appearance of your smile. At Heber Valley Dental, we’ve noticed that many residents in Heber City, UT, face this issue, often characterized by teeth that appear longer or increased sensitivity to temperature changes. It’s not just an aesthetic concern; gum recession can lead to serious dental health problems if left untreated.
Understanding Gum Recession
Gum recession exposes the roots of your teeth, making them more susceptible to decay, infection, and loss. This condition can stem from various factors:
- Oral Health Practices:
- Lifestyle Habits: Smoking can contribute to gum tissue damage.
- Health Conditions: Diabetes and other systemic conditions may affect gum health.
- Genetic Predisposition: Some people are more prone to gum recession due to their genetic makeup.
- Aging: Receding gums can be part of the natural aging process.
Take Action Against Gum Recession
If you’re noticing changes in your gums or experiencing sensitivity, don’t wait. Contact Heber Valley Dental to arrange a consultation. We’re equipped to halt gum recession in its tracks and restore the beauty and health of your smile with advanced, patient-friendly treatments. Catching gum recession early is key.
While initial stages may be managed with deep cleaning or medication, advanced recession often requires gum grafting surgery.
