While you may think of your teeth as the most important part of your mouth, your gums also play a vital role in keeping your smile healthy. They are the protective barrier that prevents infection and keeps your teeth sturdy, and if you have gum disease or soft tissue disease, this can have a lasting impact on your oral health. Having too much or too little soft tissue can jeopardize your mouth’s function and cause severe pain. That’s why our skilled dentists at Premier Choice Dental Center offer customized soft tissue periodontal treatments such as gum grafts and frenectomies in Belgrade, MT to gently rebalance and restore your smile, and help you live a happy life!

If your gums are receding, or pulling away from your teeth, this can leave the sensitive roots exposed to infection and pain. Gum grafting restores tissue that has receded, usually using tissue from elsewhere in your own mouth. This tissue graft will fuse with your existing gums and give you a healthy, consistent gumline.
If you have a “gummy” smile, it means you have too much gum tissue covering your teeth, and your teeth can look too small. This is more than just a cosmetic issue, which is why we offer oral surgery to reshape your gum tissue and remove excess gum and bone around your teeth. A combination of soft tissue recontouring, crown lengthening and gingivectomy can restore your gummy smile, and thus restore the symmetry to your mouth and improve your tooth-to-gum ratio.
The soft tissue that connects your tongue to your bottom of your mouth and your top lip to your gums is called the frenulum. If these tissues overgrow, they restrict movement in your lips and tongue, and can cause difficulty eating and speaking. That’s why we offer frenectomy surgery in Belgrade, MT to release this problematic tissue, allowing your mouth its full range of movement once again.
