Gum GraftingIn Fontana


Receding gums don't have to be your future
Especially when you choose an expert. Gum grafting protects your tooth roots and reduces the risk of bone loss. Plus, you’ll feel more confident with an even, symmetrical gumline that looks natural. As a board-certified periodontist, Dr. Tobias Boehm uses gentle microsurgical techniques for minimal discomfort and faster healing.

Why we’re the go-to choice for gum grafting
Specialized expertise
Gum grafting is all about precision. Dr. Boehm’s advanced periodontal training ensures your graft is placed with exactness, blending seamlessly with your natural gum tissue.
Comfort-focused care
We offer local anesthesia and sedation options so your procedure is as comfortable as possible — many patients are surprised at how easy recovery is.
Tailored treatment plans
Not every case of recession is the same. We select the right grafting method for your needs, whether it’s to treat a single tooth, multiple teeth, or your whole smile.
Here's what you can expect
Comprehensive evaluation
Dr. Boehm begins with a detailed exam to understand the extent of gum recession and determine the best grafting method for your needs. Photos and measurements are taken so you can clearly see where tissue support is needed.
Personalized treatment plan
You’ll review grafting options together — whether using your own tissue, donor tissue, or repositioning existing gum. Dr. Boehm explains the benefits of each approach, making sure you feel comfortable with the plan before moving forward.
Comfortable procedure
On the day of your graft, local anesthesia ensures the area is completely numb, with sedation available if you’d like extra peace of mind. The graft is carefully placed and sutured for stability, with microsurgical techniques that minimize discomfort and speed healing.
Recovery and follow-up
Most patients return to daily activities within a day or two. You’ll get simple aftercare instructions and schedule follow-ups so Dr. Boehm can track your healing. As the graft integrates, your gums become stronger, healthier, and more protected for the long term.

We use local anesthesia so you won’t feel anything during the procedure, and sedation options are available for added comfort. Afterward, you may have mild soreness or swelling for a few days, which can usually be managed with over-the-counter medication.
