Periodontal Plastic Surgery in Roseville

If you have an uneven gum line that results in over- or under-exposed tooth structure, missing teeth or unsightly indentations in your jawbone, our periodontal specialists can restore the symmetry of your smile. Our doctors enhance the functionality of your mouth through several different procedures that fall under the discipline of periodontal plastic surgery in Roseville, CA.

Periodontal plastic surgery is the recontouring and redefining your gum and bone margins for enhanced aesthetics and long-term functionality of your teeth. Four unique procedures fall under the term:

• Aesthetic Crown Lengthening — this procedure typically involves the removal of gum tissue to expose submerged tooth structure
• Aesthetic Gum Grafting — this procedure is usually needed when a patient suffers from overexposed roots and tooth structure or needs to thicken their gums to prevent them from receding
• Dental Implants — considered the most advanced, predictable and durable way to replace missing teeth without compromising adjacent teeth
• Ridge Augmentation — when your jaw does not have enough bone to support a dental implant, we can regrow 30-70% of your bone mass at the implant site

Call Drs. Hakimi or Vasanthan today and restore the symmetry of your smile and full function within your mouth with periodontal plastic surgery.

Magnificent Bone & Gums — The Foundation of Healthy Teeth

When most people think of dentistry, they think of teeth. However, since healthy gums and bone secure your teeth firmly in their proper location, they set the precedent for a solid dental health program. Interestingly enough, the vast majority of decay issues that end up requiring the removal of tooth structure actually began deeper in the foundations of your mouth.

Periodontal plastic therapy in Roseville literally addresses the “root” cause of these issues, rather than the effects or symptoms that appear at the tooth level. By using evidence-based solutions like gum grafting, crown lengthening, ridge augmentation and dental implants, periodontal experts Hakimi, Vasanthan and Townsend can remedy cosmetic and functional issues that can diminish your oral health.

Your gums protect the roots of your teeth from harmful bacteria and your bone support those gums. Keep them healthy and your smile glowing by visiting our periodontal specialists.
