The Lasting Benefits of Soft Tissue Grafts

Choose ImplantWIDE for comprehensive dental implant solutions that bring lasting positive changes to your oral health and overall well-being.

Reduces Sensitivity

Exposed roots can be highly sensitive to cold, brushing, or even air. Grafting creates a natural barrier, often reducing or eliminating discomfort.

Why Soft Tissue Grafting?

Over time, gum tissue can recede due to aggressive brushing, periodontal disease, orthodontics, or natural anatomy. When this happens, the roots of your teeth may become exposed, leading to:

Tooth sensitivity

Increased risk of root decay

Gum inflammation

Aesthetic concerns (“long teeth”)

Poor tissue health around dental implants

A soft tissue graft addresses these concerns by restoring lost gum tissue or thickening areas of thin tissue. It’s a proactive and protective solution for long-term oral health.

What to Expect After a Graft

Most soft tissue grafting procedures are completed in a single visit using local anesthesia. Recovery is typically smooth, with most patients returning to normal activities in a few days. Full healing and integration of the grafted tissue occurs gradually over several weeks. We’ll provide you with complete post-operative care instructions and follow-up visits to monitor healing and ensure the best possible outcome.

Single Tooth Replacement

The absence of a single tooth can impact more than just your smile; it can lead to larger issues affecting your entire mouth and jaw. Teeth may shift to occupy the gap, and difficulties in chewing certain foods may arise. ImplantWIDE offers a tailored solution with a single dental implant, addressing the cosmetic concern and providing a permanent fix to prevent these associated problems

Implant Supported Dentures

Our implant-supported dentures offer a comprehensive solution for achieving a full mouth restoration. These removable dentures seamlessly attach to surgical implant posts, providing you with the smile you deserve while minimizing bone recession. Unlike traditional dentures, our implant-supported dentures securely attach to your mouth without the need for adhesive, offering both stability and confidence. Patients also have the flexibility to easily remove them for convenient cleaning and maintenance, ensuring optimal oral hygiene and long-lasting results.

Why Dental Implants Are Our Preferred Solution

Dental implants stand out as our preferred solution for smile restoration due to their numerous advantages. Unlike traditional dental bridges, implants don’t rely on the presence of healthy adjacent teeth for support. Moreover, they significantly reduce the risk of bone recession and sunken facial features. The implant posts, acting as tooth roots, are securely anchored in the jawbone, ensuring stability and support for the final restoration. With the capability to restore over 99% of biting and chewing power, dental implants are our specialty at ImplantWIDE. We take pride in offering our patients this permanent solution for achieving a brand-new, healthy smile

Patients Ask

What are dental implants, and how do they work?

Dental implants are artificial tooth roots made of titanium that are surgically placed into the jawbone. Over time, they fuse with the bone, providing a strong foundation for a replacement tooth or teeth. They function and appear like natural teeth.
