Gum Surgery
What Is Gum Surgery?
Gum surgery is a dental procedure performed to treat gum diseases, restore oral health, or improve the appearance of the gums. It is commonly recommended for patients with advanced periodontal disease, gum recession, or excessive gum tissue. Depending on the condition, gum surgery may involve reshaping, grafting, or removing infected tissue to protect teeth and bone.
