Mucogingival esthetic surgery focuses on correcting soft tissue irregularities around the teeth and gums to improve both appearance and function. At Dr. Pierre Hilal’s clinics in Beirut and Zahle, we offer specialized mucogingival procedures to treat gum recession, enhance tissue thickness, and improve the harmony of your smile.
This type of surgery is commonly used to cover exposed tooth roots, reduce sensitivity, and restore natural gum contours. It is especially valuable in the esthetic zone—areas visible when you smile—where balance between teeth and gums is essential for a pleasing appearance.
Procedures may include connective tissue grafts, free gingival grafts, and pedicle grafts, depending on the patient’s anatomy and goals. These grafts are typically taken from the palate or a donor source and are used to reinforce thin gums or reposition tissue over recessed areas.
Dr. Pierre Hilal’s expertise in periodontology and esthetic surgery ensures that every treatment is carefully planned and executed with artistic precision. We use minimally invasive techniques that promote faster healing, reduced discomfort, and lasting results.
Patients benefit from improved esthetics, better root protection, and increased resistance to gum disease. These procedures also help create the optimal foundation for restorative or cosmetic dental work.
If you’re concerned about uneven gums, exposed roots, or esthetic imperfections in your gumline, mucogingival esthetic surgery can help you achieve a more symmetrical and confident smile.
