It’s imperative that the gum tissue tightly attaches to your teeth.For patients who suffer from periodontal disease what happens is that their gum tissue will pull away from the bone which causes pockets to form around the patient’s teeth. This is where bacteria will build up overtime. Bacteria build under the gum tissue itself causing tooth loss and other oral issues.

The procedure will involve gently pushing back the tissue as well as cleaning the roots of your teeth in order for the gum tissue to reattach to healthy bone structure in your mouth.
