The procedure helps restore gum health, protect teeth, and enhance the overall appearance of your smile.

FAQ
Gum surgery is necessary when gum disease has progressed to the point where non-surgical treatments, such as scaling and root planing, are insufficient to control the infection.
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia to minimize discomfort. Post-surgery, some soreness or swelling may occur, but it can be managed with prescribed pain relievers and proper care.
Recovery times vary depending on the type of surgery, but most patients recover within 1–2 weeks. Full healing of the gums may take a few months.
