Contact UsWhat Is Soft Tissue Grafting?
If gum (periodontal) disease has progressed to the complex phases, you may develop gum recession. This causes a raised gumline and exposed tooth roots. At Kansas City Surgical Arts, a part of your gum disease therapy may include soft tissue grafting to restore your gumline. When you come in for your first appointment, board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeons Dr. Matthew Hlavacek or Dr. Jason Baker will produce your personal treatment plan to restore your gums. Get in touch with our office in Kansas City, MO to find out more about how soft tissue grafting can fix your gums, protect your teeth, and enhance the overall look of your smile.
How Is Soft Tissue Grafting Performed?
Among the various types of gum grafts available, soft tissue grafting is the most common kind used to fix gum recession. Soft tissue grafting at Kansas City Surgical Arts is performed under local anesthesia to ensure you stay comfortable. The procedure itself starts with Dr. Hlavacek or Dr. Baker cutting an incision in the roof of your mouth to remove a little flap of skin. The connective tissue is taken from inside the flap and then attached to your gumline. After this whole process is complete, incisions will be applied to seal the area and promote healing.
Kansas City Surgical Arts Reviews
Everyone that I had any interaction with at this facility were beyond amazing!!! From the doctor to all of the nursing staff and the anesthesiologist, there wasn’t a question that went unanswered, not a feeling that wasn’t comforted…I had the most incredible experience and couldn’t be more impressed! I highly recommend this facility to anyone and everyone looking to have work done. You will NOT be disappointed.
Dr.Baker was amazing! I was having issues on the day of surgery and gave him a call up around 10pm not knowing if he was going to answer, but he did and helped me tremendously with getting the prescription I needed right away. We had a little trouble finding a pharmacy so he did some research after our call and gave us a call back about 30 minutes later. He even gave me a check up call in the morning to make sure I was still doing alright. He saved me so trouble by answering his phone that night, can’t say thank you enough.
We were so impressed by Dr.Baker and his staff. I had a small complication prior to surgery , and Dr.Baker himself called me back and helped me. Then when I arrived for my surgery, my driver developed medical issues, and they took care of him as well! They were all so kind and caring, never rushed. Then Dr. Baker called back in the afternoon to check on both of us! I would give the very highest recommendation to anyone I know needing oral surgery.
My son was so nervous to get his wisdom teeth out. We had everything thoroughly explained to us. We were treated so well. Thank you for the care you gave my son!
Everyone was very kind and explained every procedure that was going to be performed. I have had no problems
