Case: 12123 Category: Tooth Contouring & Re-Shaping Gender: Female Description: Recession of gum tissue is very common. It detracts from a person's smile & sometimes leads to tooth sensitivity. There are a few different solutions for this problem. One of the most aesthetic procedures, with little post operative pain, often linked to free gingival grafts, is the subepithelial connective tissue graft. |
