It is a surgical procedure to solve problems of receding gums that reveals part of the tooth that was previously hidden under the gum. It consists of making a graft in the gum. Once the procedure has been carried out and healed, the root of the tooth is covered and it is possible to reestablish the firm union of the gum with the tooth, which protects against tooth decay and dental hypersensitivity, as well as improves the aesthetics of the smile.
