Gum Grafting in Murfreesboro and Smyrna, TN

A gum graft is a procedure designed to restore receding gums and protect your teeth from further damage caused by gum recession. During gum graft surgery, tissue is taken from another area of your mouth or a donor source and carefully placed to cover exposed tooth roots. This not only improves oral health but also enhances the appearance of your smile. At Middle Tennessee Oral and Implant Surgery, Dr. Mark Hardison and Dr. Jeff Warden provide gum graft procedures tailored to your needs, helping you achieve a healthier, more confident smile. Contact us in Murfreesboro or Smyrna, TN to learn more.

A gum graft is performed by carefully placing new tissue over areas where gums have receded. During the procedure, your oral surgeon will numb the area for comfort, then take tissue from your palate or a donor source to graft it to the receded gumline. The graft is secured and left to heal, allowing it to integrate with your existing gum tissue. Following the procedure, gum graft recovery typically involves a few days of rest, with some mild swelling or discomfort, but most patients can return to regular activities after a short healing period. This process restores the gumline, protects tooth roots, and helps improve both oral health and appearance.

Not only did Dr. Hardison do my wisdom teeth removal back in 2021, but he completed the wisdom teeth surgery on my daughter yesterday. We have had nothing, but amazing experiences with him and his team. Everyone is so friendly and Dr. Hardison has great bed side manner. I recommend him to everyone!
