Oral Soft & Hard Tissue Augmentation

Oral soft and hard tissue augmentation are dental procedures aimed at rebuilding or enhancing the soft and hard tissues of the oral cavity to improve function, aesthetics, and overall oral health. These procedures are often performed by periodontists or oral surgeons and may involve various techniques and materials. Soft tissue augmentation, also known as gum grafting or gingival grafting, involves adding gum tissue to areas where it has receded or is deficient. This can be caused by factors such as periodontal disease, trauma, or genetics.

Oral soft and hard tissue augmentation procedures play a crucial role in restorative and reconstructive dentistry, helping to improve the health, function, and aesthetics of the oral cavity. These procedures require careful planning, precise execution, and post-operative care to achieve successful outcomes. Patients considering oral tissue augmentation should consult with a qualified dental professional to determine the most appropriate treatment options for their specific needs.
