Whether you would like cosmetic periodontal surgery to create a healthier smile or you need surgery to prepare for a dental implant, you can trust our periodontists to provide the exceptional care you deserve. We offer patient-centered treatments designed to achieve natural-looking results that not only look good but contribute to a healthier mouth and a more confident you.
Who Is a Candidate for Cosmetic Periodontal Surgery?
- Receding Gums. Gums that have pulled back can make teeth look long and leave the roots exposed.
- Exposed Roots. Visible roots can feel sensitive and are more open to decay, and covering them protects the tooth.
- A Gummy Smile. When gum tissue covers too much of the teeth, reshaping it can let more of your natural teeth show.
- An Uneven Gumline. Gums that sit at different heights from tooth to tooth can be evened out for a more balanced smile.
- Preparing for an Implant. Some implant sites need gum or tissue work first so the final tooth looks natural and stays healthy.

Cosmetic Dentistry Treatments
Crown Lengthening
Our dental implant solutions offer a cutting-edge alternative to traditional dentures. We create a sturdy foundation for artificial teeth using titanium posts fused to the jawbone. This technique not only restores the full function and appearance of your natural teeth but also preserves facial structure, providing a long-term solution to tooth loss.
Gum Grafting
Gum grafting at our clinic is tailored to each patient’s needs and addresses gingival recession, protecting teeth from decay and aesthetic compromise. Transferring tissue to affected areas creates a robust defense against bacterial invasion, reduces sensitivity, and fosters a natural, healthier gum line.

FAQs
Cosmetic Periodontal Surgery FAQs
Check out these questions, or contact us to speak with our team.
What is cosmetic periodontal surgery?
It is gum treatment that improves how your smile looks while supporting healthy gums. Common examples include crown lengthening to uncover more of the teeth and gum grafting to cover exposed roots.
Is cosmetic periodontal surgery painful?
The area is numbed with local anesthesia, so most patients feel pressure rather than pain during treatment. Some tenderness afterward is normal, and we explain how to stay comfortable while you heal.
How long does healing take?
Healing depends on the procedure and how many teeth are treated. The gums usually feel better within a few weeks, and Dr. Rodriguez checks your progress until the tissue has fully settled.
Will my results look natural?
That is our goal for every patient. Dr. Rodriguez plans the new gumline around your teeth, lips and smile so the result fits your face.
Does insurance cover cosmetic periodontal surgery?
Coverage depends on your plan and on whether treatment is done for health reasons, such as covering exposed roots, or for appearance. Our team reviews your benefits, explains your treatment plan and offers flexible financing.
