Soft Tissue Regeneration

Soft tissue regeneration restores lost or damaged gum tissue - often due to gum recession, trauma, or previous treatments - using grafts or guided techniques. The goal? To cover exposed roots, protect your teeth or implants, and enhance your smile's natural appearance, all while ensuring long-term oral health.

If you've noticed gum recession, sensitivity to hot or cold, or feel insecure about your smile, this procedure can help. Dr. Nik restores the protective gum layer, reducing sensitivity and improving the look and feel of your teeth. Many patients find it restores confidence more than they anticipated.

Depending on your personal needs, Dr. Nik uses connective tissue grafts, pedicle flaps, or gentle collagen-based materials. Each approach is designed to ensure the best possible result - with minimal discomfort and a natural finish that blends beautifully with your existing tissue.

No - most patients experience no pain during the procedure thanks to anaesthetic or sedation. After, you may feel tenderness or mild swelling, but pain relief and clear aftercare guidance will help you return to normal daily life within a few days - often sooner than expected.

Initial healing takes 2 - 4 weeks, with full tissue maturation over several months. Dr. Nik will monitor your progress, ensuring the tissue strengthens beautifully and the result is exactly what you hoped it would be - secure, comfortable, and aesthetically pleasing.

Absolutely. Healthy gum tissue stabilises teeth and implants, reducing inflammation and infection risks like peri-implantitis. Many patients report fewer dental issues and easier oral care after undergoing soft tissue regeneration.
