BM Cosmetic - Gingival Flap Surgery
What is Gingival Flap Surgery?
Gingival Flap Surgery, a specialised dental procedure, is an essential component of modern dentistry that plays a crucial role in the treatment of gum disease. At BM Cosmetic, we are committed to offering this advanced technique to our patients in Chennai. This innovative procedure is designed to restore the health and aesthetics of your gums, ensuring your smile remains vibrant and healthy.
Gingival flap Surgery, often referred to as “flap surgery for teeth,” involves carefully lifting a section of your gum tissue to gain access to the underlying tooth roots and jawbone. This procedure is primarily performed to treat advanced gum disease, also known as periodontitis.

Pocket Reduction
Involves meticulous cleaning to remove plaque or tartar, then repositioning the tissue to effectively reduce the pocket’s depth, eliminating hiding spots for bacteria.
Grafting Procedures
Tissue is typically harvested from a donor site (like the palate) and grafted onto the affected area to protect exposed roots and contribute to a pleasing gum line.
Bone Regeneration
Regenerative materials (bone graft, membrane, or proteins) act as a scaffold, encouraging the body to rebuild lost bone and support teeth.
Cosmetic Contouring
Carefully reshaping excess gum tissue for a "gummy" smile or adding to receding gums for a balanced, harmonious appearance.
