Yes... but not in all cases... especially if there is bone loss. a good exam would be needed first.

A gum graft can be used to restore lost tissue around dental implants. Other gum rejuvenation techniques that you may have heard about do not work with dental implants, but gum graft has a long tradition of being used in concert with dental implant procedures to ensure aesthetic results.
