Gum grafting in Cannes

Gum recession — the receding of the gums — isn't just an aesthetic problem.

It exposes the tooth root, causes sensitivity to hot and cold, increases the risk of root decay and can, over time, weaken the tooth. A gum graft is the gold-standard treatment to remedy it.

Why graft?

  • Cover one or more exposed roots

  • Thicken a gum that is too thin and fragile

  • Halt the progression of a recession

  • Restore a natural, harmonious gum contour

  • Prepare the ground before an implant or orthodontic treatment

Our approach: microsurgery

We perform gum grafts using microsurgery, with miniaturized instruments and high-magnification optical assistance. The benefit for you: smaller incisions, reduced post-operative recovery, faster healing and an optimal aesthetic result.

Free gingival and connective tissue grafts

Depending on your situation, we take a graft (most often from the palate) that we position precisely at the site of the recession. The technique is chosen according to the objective: root coverage, gum thickening, or aesthetic improvement of the smile.

The gum is the foundation of the smile.
