Restore Your Gumline with Advanced AlloDerm Tissue Grafting
Gum recession can expose the roots of your teeth, leading to sensitivity, discomfort, and changes in the appearance of your smile.
Over time, exposed roots become more vulnerable to decay and damage if left untreated. Our team provides advanced AlloDerm gum recession treatment in Reno, NV, to restore lost tissue and protect your long-term oral health.
AlloDerm tissue grafting uses a specially processed donor tissue matrix to replace or strengthen receding gum tissue.
The material is derived from donated human tissue, carefully processed to remove cells, leaving a collagen framework that supports new tissue growth. Once placed, the graft integrates with your gums and encourages your body to regenerate healthy tissue.
Our periodontal specialists at Sierra Nevada Periodontics & Implant Dentistry often recommend this soft tissue grafting procedure when gum tissue has receded or become too thin to properly protect the teeth. Here are a few common reasons for a donor tissue gum graft:
An AlloDerm donor-tissue gum graft eliminates the need to harvest tissue from the roof of the mouth. Traditional grafting methods often require a second surgical site, which can be helpful in some cases but increases discomfort and recovery time. With AlloDerm, we can provide a more comfortable way to restore the gumline using donor tissue that integrates naturally with your existing gums.
Your visit begins with a detailed periodontal exam to evaluate the extent of gum recession. Our team reviews your symptoms, gum health, and overall oral condition before recommending gum recession treatment with AlloDerm. Careful planning ensures the graft supports both health and aesthetics.
During the procedure, the doctor places the AlloDerm graft over the area of gum recession. Local anesthetic and comfort measures help ensure a relaxed experience throughout treatment. The graft integrates with the surrounding tissue and provides support for new gum growth.
Over time, your body incorporates the graft material into the surrounding tissue. Healthy gum tissue gradually regenerates and covers the exposed root surfaces. This exposed tooth root treatment improves comfort while restoring a stronger, more balanced gumline and predictable success with other treatments such as bone grafts and dental implants.
We’ll be with you every step of the way to ensure a smooth, comfortable recovery and successful results. Our team provides detailed instructions for caring for your gum graft after your procedure, including avoiding certain foods and activities that may irritate the graft site, maintaining excellent oral hygiene with gentle brushing and prescribed mouth rinses, and keeping up with regular follow-up appointments to monitor healing and progress.
Our periodontal team provides advanced procedures, including AlloDerm tissue grafting and other solutions, to treat gum recession and protect your smile.
We combine specialized training, modern technology, and proven techniques to deliver reliable results. Our office also offers financing options to help make gum graft surgery more accessible, so you can always enjoy exceptional oral health.
