Introduction to Soft Tissue Treatments

Dante Colosimo, DDS is a reputable dental practice specializing in comprehensive dental services with a focus on soft tissue treatments. Our team of highly skilled professionals is dedicated to improving both the health and aesthetics of your gums through advanced treatment options.

Gum Graft

Gum graft, also known as gingival graft, is a procedure used to address gum recession. Receding gums can expose the tooth roots, leading to sensitivity, damage, and aesthetic concerns. Our experienced periodontists at Dante Colosimo, DDS perform gum grafts to restore the gumline and protect the underlying tooth structure.

During a gum graft procedure, our skilled team carefully takes a small amount of gum tissue from another area of your mouth, typically the palate, and grafts it onto the affected area. This graft helps to cover exposed tooth roots, reduce sensitivity, and enhance the overall appearance of your smile.

Frenectomy

A frenectomy is a surgical procedure aimed at correcting a condition known as a frenum attachment or frenulum. The frenum is the thin band of tissue that connects the lips, cheeks, or tongue to the gum tissue or the floor of the mouth. Sometimes, the frenum can be abnormally positioned, causing functional and aesthetic issues.

Our skilled oral surgeons perform frenectomies to release or remove the problematic frenum, restoring proper function and improving the appearance of the affected area. Common reasons for frenectomy include tongue-tie (ankyloglossia), lip-tie, and concerns related to denture stability or speech impediments.

Gum Recontouring

Gum recontouring, also known as gum reshaping or gingival sculpting, is a cosmetic procedure used to improve the appearance of your smile by reshaping the gumline. Irregular gumlines, excessive gum display (gummy smile), or a disproportionate ratio between your gums and teeth can affect the overall harmony of your smile.

Our highly skilled cosmetic dentists utilize advanced techniques and precision tools to carefully remove excess gum tissue or reshape the existing gumline, revealing more of your natural tooth structure and creating a visually pleasing aesthetic. Gum recontouring can often be combined with other cosmetic dental procedures for a complete smile makeover.
