Gum recession can cause sensitivity, discomfort and can compromise the outlook of the tooth. Even if it’s in an area where you can’t see it, it might need attention. Thin unattached gum is prone to further gum recession, so we did a gum graft here to thicken the gum tissue and protect the tooth. We also managed to cover some of the exposed root which was an added bonus! Thank you @dr.sheila for referring this lovely patient.
