Comparing Different Types of Gum Grafts: FGG vs CTG
Gum grafts aren’t one-size-fits-all, and in this video, Dr. Yousefi breaks down the difference between FGG (Free Gingival Graft) vs. CTG (Connective Tissue Graft).
- CTG (most common): Ideal for covering exposed roots, improving gum recession appearance, and blending seamlessly with your natural gum line.
- FGG: Great for adding thick gum tissue in areas with thin or receding gums to protect the teeth.
Both serve different purposes, but the goal is the same: healthier gums and a stronger smile. Watch to learn which option might be best for your smile and why gum grafting is key in protecting your teeth for the long haul.
