Concern for gum graft recovery
I am a periodontist. I do this all day along. Gum graft may take takes several months to totally adhere to the tooth or existing gums. Consult with your periodontist so he can anser this for you. Take care. Kumar T. Vadivel, DDS, MS, FDS RCS READ MORE
How can I get my gum disease treated with dental offices closing?
Gum disease can be a slow thing and not generally considered a life-threatening emergency. For your safety, I recommend you wait until the pandemic is over to consult with your Periodontist or Dentist to weigh your treatment options. Take care. Kumar T. Vadivel, DDS, MS, FDS RCS READ MORE
Do gums grow around implants?
Yes, they can. If they don't as reconstructive gum specialists, we as periodontists can do that for you, if you are a good candidate to grow the gums. Kumar T. Vadivel, DDS, MS, FDS RCS READ MORE
What causes tooth fissures?
Tooth fissures are a normal anatomy in most cases, possibly that is the way you are designed by mother nature. Although it is the case we generally see fissures being caused by habits such as brushing, tooth picking, soda drinking, eating certain foods, grinding your teeth and so on. I recommend you consult your dentist to see you are at risk of fracturing your tooth since certain fissures case even break a tooth. Take care, Kumar T. Vadivel, DDS, MS, FDS RCS READ MORE
