DON'T SEE A DENTIST FOR GUM RECESSION! You Need a Periodontist!

Don’t see a dentist for gum recession…You need to see a periodontist! In this video, we walk you through why you need a specialist when treating gum recession.

This patient had a pinhole procedure done by a general dentist, but less than 2 years later, her gum recession was back. Why? Because the real problem wasn’t addressed, her gum tissue was too thin, making her a poor candidate for the pinhole procedure. This is something only a periodontist would have recognized.

After meeting with Dr. Yousefi, the patient finally got the right treatment: a gum graft. Now her gums are healthy, stable, and protected for the long term. 

If you’re struggling with gum recession, don’t waste time with quick fixes or the wrong treatment. See a periodontist, a gum specialist who can determine the right procedure for you and get it done right the first time.
