when is it too late for gum grafting

Still, thinking gum grafting procedure?

Maybe it’s not too late yet.

Gum grafting is a surgical procedure to repair gum tissue. It is often performed to treat gum recession where the gums recede and expose the roots of teeth.

It is not too late for gum grafting if you are still in the early stages of gum recession. You can save your teeth from being exposed by the gums with a simple surgery that takes just an hour or so. However, if you have been suffering from receding gums for years, it may be too late for gum grafting and you might need to consider tooth extraaction instead.
