Gum flap surgery is an advanced and specialized dental procedure offered at Unicare Center for Cosmetic & Implant Dentistry, aimed at rejuvenating and restoring optimal gum health. This procedure involves carefully lifting a section of the gums to access the underlying tissues, allowing for thorough cleaning, treatment and repair.
