When gum disease or oral trauma becomes too advanced for non-surgical care, advanced gum surgery may be needed to restore your oral health and prevent tooth or bone loss. At The Newport Beach Dentist, Dr. Omid Haroonian offers a wide range of soft tissue and bone procedures in-house using modern, minimally invasive techniques to promote healing, comfort, and long-term results.
Advanced gum surgery involves surgical treatment of the gums, bone, or surrounding tissue to address problems that cannot be resolved with deep cleanings alone. These procedures can be used to:
Gently lifts the gums to clean the roots and underlying bone, then sutures the tissue back in place to reduce pocket depth and promote healing.
Restores lost bone volume in areas affected by gum disease or tooth loss—often used to prepare the jaw for dental implants.
Used to cover exposed roots, reduce sensitivity, and restore natural gum contours. Commonly performed for gum recession.
Encourages regrowth of bone and gum tissue by placing a biocompatible membrane between the gum and bone, allowing natural healing.
Removes overgrown or infected gum tissue to reduce pockets, improve oral hygiene, or create a more aesthetic smile line.
Reshapes the gum and bone tissue to expose more of the tooth structure—ideal for restorative work or improving a “gummy smile.”
Uses a soft-tissue dental laser to remove diseased tissue with minimal discomfort, less bleeding, and faster healing.
