In this photo, there are multiple areas of root recession caused by excessive pressure form the tooth brush. Here our patient opted to use her own tissue taken from her palate to be used for the regeneration of the lost gingiva. This approach is considered by many practitioners to be the most predictable way to restore health.
This is the post operative photo of the above patient approximately 6 weeks after the procedure. The regenerated gingival (gum) tissue has added significant coverage to the previously denuded areas. The patient also stated that there is a noticable decrease in the amount of sensitivity to cold stimuli around the previously denuded areas.
