Gum surgery at HOK is treated as true precision plastic surgery. We understand that the teeth are often perfect, but the “frame” around them creates a disharmony that silences your expression.
Whether it’s excess tissue hiding your smile or recession exposing the root and causing pain, these details directly affect your confidence.
Under the rigor of the Kaufmann Protocol, we redesign the tissue contour with minimally invasive techniques to restore balance between the pink of the gums and the white of the teeth.
It’s not just about visible or receding gums; it’s about seeking a symmetry that restores natural elegance to your face
We combine plastic microsurgery with our 7-floor hospital facility to ensure a predictable, comfortable recovery.
More than aesthetics, our gum surgery protects the health of your roots and restores the golden proportion of your face.
It is the art of periodontics working so that you regain the pleasure of smiling with a harmony that seems like you were born with it.
Periodontal Plastic Surgery and Microsurgery
Technically, gum surgery includes procedures such as gingivoplasty (removal of excess tissue), clinical crown lengthening or gum grafts to cover exposed roots.
At HOK we use microsurgical instruments and magnification that allow precise incisions and almost invisible sutures.
The goal is to correct morphological defects and margin discrepancies, ensuring the gums have the ideal thickness, color and contour to support and enhance the teeth.
Microscopes or powerful loupes ensure the anatomy is preserved as much as possible.
Minimally invasive techniques that reduce swelling and speed up tissue healing.
Procedures performed in a controlled sterile environment, with the option of conscious sedation.
Digital planning that analyzes the proportions of the face, lips and teeth before touching the gums.
Effective treatment for gum recession that exposes the root and causes pain with cold or heat. Multidisciplinary Team: integration with dental aesthetics so the gum contour perfectly matches future veneers.
Gum surgery at HOK is the definitive and safe solution if you face any of these difficulties in your daily life:
Designed for those who value every detail.
Your questions answered
No. At HOK, microsurgical techniques and ultra-fine sutures make healing imperceptible.
Discomfort is minimal and controlled with simple painkillers. The minimally invasive technique drastically reduces trauma.
Initial healing takes 7 to 14 days, but dietary care is essential in the first 48 hours.
If performed under the Kaufmann Protocol, which removes excess bone when necessary, the chance of recurrence is very low.
We can use the laser as an adjunct to improve healing, depending on each clinical case.
The investment depends on the complexity and number of teeth involved. A digital assessment at HOK defines the ideal plan.
