Redefine Your Smile With Gum Recession Treatment in Edgewood

Receding gums have a noticeable impact on the appearance and health of your smile. When your gums have pulled away from your teeth, it can expose the roots. This can hurt your confidence in your smile. It can also cause discomfort and leave you susceptible to dental problems. You can change that with our Edgewood gum recession treatment.

At Edgewood Dental Care, this procedure:

  • Restores gumlines to their proper place for a more attractive smile
  • Covers tooth roots to protect them from cavity-causing bacteria
  • Stops pain and tooth sensitivity
  • Gives you back your oral health

Instead of having a complicated surgery, repair your gums with a minimally invasive option. Call 859-474-7830 to make an appointment at our office. Find out how this treatment can bring back your smile. We’re open from 7 a.m. until 7 p.m. four days a week, and we offer Friday and Saturday hours as well.

Keep Your Gum Treatment Simple

To have a healthy mouth, you need healthy gums. Receding gums put you at a greater risk of other issues, including tooth infections. Gum recession can be the result of one or more factors, including gum disease, your genes, hormone changes, poor oral hygiene, and brushing your teeth too hard. We offer a simple, but effective treatment with the Chao Pinhole® technique. Here are a few things you should know about this revolutionary method:

  • Your treatment is less invasive but just as effective. Using just a small opening, we can loosen the tissue and gently reposition it. This restores your gumline to its original location, where it covers and protects the roots of your teeth.
  • You’ll be able to see the difference that same day.
  • Your recovery will be easier because the opening is so small.
  • You can stay comfortable during your treatment with your choice of dental sedation. You won’t feel anything while the pinhole procedure is underway. We also have several amenities that will put you at ease, including options you can select from our comfort menu.

Because the pinhole technique can be performed only by someone who has trained with the method’s creator, just a few dentists in Kentucky offer it. Fortunately for our patients, Dr. Kevin McMahon can provide this cutting-edge treatment right here.

You owe it to yourself to get your smile back in shape. To experience the benefits of gum recession treatment in Edgewood, call 859-474-7830 for an appointment. You can also schedule online.

Common Questions About Gum Recession Treatment

What causes gum recession?

Receding gums can come about from a lot of causes. Most commonly we see receding gums due to overzealous brushing or brushing with hard bristles. Gum disease might also lead to gum recession, as can your genes. Regardless of the cause, we can help you recover and restore your healthy gums.

Can gum recession be treated?

Yes, receding gums are very treatable. Here at Edgewood Dental Care, we use the Chao Pinhole® Surgical Technique, which doesn’t require cutting or stitches to repair your gums. It’s less invasive and just as effective as any other treatment. We make a pin-sized opening to reposition your gums and restore them to their proper place.

How long does gum recession treatment take?

In most cases, the procedure for treating gum recession can be completed in a single day. If you have complications, it could require multiple visits. For a gum grafting procedure, we will attach connective tissue from the roof of your mouth to your gums to repair damaged tissue. Your recovery generally takes a week or two. Recovery with the pinhole technique is quicker.
