Gum Surgery: When non-surgical treatments are insufficient, the clinic performs various gum surgeries to treat unhealthy tissues, reduce bacterial spread, halt bone loss, and regenerate lost bone and tissue. Bone Grafts: Essential for patients who lack sufficient bone density for dental implants, bone grafting procedures are performed to build up and strengthen the jawbone. Gum Recession Treatment: Addressing issues where the gum tissue has pulled away from the teeth, exposing the roots. Sedation Dentistry: To ensure patient comfort and ease anxiety during procedures. Tooth Lengthening (Crown Lengthening): A procedure to expose more tooth structure for restorative or cosmetic purposes.
