Less Invasive Soft or Connective Tissue Grafts
Less Invasive Soft or Connective Tissue Grafts are advanced procedures designed to restore and enhance gum health with minimal discomfort. This technique involves using small amounts of the patient’s own tissue harvest from specific area in the mouth or on the posterior area the palate to reinforce weakened or receding gums, improving both aesthetics and functionality while promoting natural healing.

Enhanced Gum Health: Strengthens and restores gum tissue, reducing recession.
-
Minimally Invasive: Less discomfort and faster recovery compared to traditional grafts.
-
Improved Aesthetics: Provides a more natural and balanced gum line.
-
Reduced Sensitivity: Covers exposed roots, reducing sensitivity to temperature and pressure.
