In the case of removal, it’s important to give the gum tissue time to heal before the dentures are placed. In some cases it’s possible to have temporary dentures that will allow you partial function while waiting for the healing process to be completed.  - [Dental Implants](https://midpendental.com/services/mppro/mpic/): It seems like lately, more and more of our patients are choosing to restore their missing teeth with dental implants. However, there are still many people out there with missing teeth who are unaware of what dental implants are. - [Gum Disease Treatment](https://midpendental.com/services/periodontal-disease-treatment/): Periodontal disease, more commonly known as gum disease, is a collection of symptoms that begins with the growth of bacteria in the mouth. If left untreated, gum disease can progress to include more serious symptoms, including tooth loss.  - [Gum Grafting](https://midpendental.com/services/gum-grafting/): Gum grafting is a periodontal surgery used to address issues with your gum line. Gum grafting can be used to treat gum recession by covering exposed roots or for cosmetic reasons, such as creating a more pleasing smile.  - [Frenectomies and Gingivectomies](https://midpendental.com/services/frenectomies-and-gingivectomies/): A frenulum, or frenum, is a piece of tissue that connects one part of the body to another. We have frenum in several places throughout the body, but in terms of dental care, three locations may require treatment.  - [Bone Grafting](https://midpendental.com/services/bone-grafting/): Through the process of dental bone grafting, tissue can be added to areas in the jaw that are suffering from bone loss. There are several different kinds of bone grafting procedures, and depending on your situation, the bone may be taken from your own body or acquired from a tissue bank. - [Wisdom Teeth Extraction](https://midpendental.com/mpos/wisdom-teeth-removal/): By the time wisdom teeth begin to emerge, most people already have a full set of teeth. That means there usually isn’t room for wisdom teeth in the mouth, and they’re likely to push the other teeth out of place — and cause pain in the process.  - [Sleep Apnea Treatment](https://midpendental.com/services/sleep-apnea-treatment/): Sleep apnea is a serious condition in which your breathing stops and starts multiple times throughout the night while you’re sleeping. - [Dental Sedation](https://midpendental.com/services/dental-sedation/): Everyone needs to take care of their oral and dental health. But for people with dental fears, dental anxieties, or even phobias about dentists or dental procedures, their oral health can suffer. - [TMD/TMJ Treatment](https://midpendental.com/services/tmd-tmj-treatment/): The temporomandibular joint is the connection point between your jaw and your skull. The clues are in the name — tempor for the temporal bone and mandibular for the mandible. The connection point is in front of your ear, and you can feel it if you place your hand in front of your ear and open and close your jaw. The joint we’re talking about is the one that allows for that movement.  - [Full Mouth Reconstruction](https://midpendental.com/services/full-mouth-reconstruction/): A full mouth reconstruction is when all or most of the teeth need to be repaired or replaced. Often, gum tissue and even jawbone also require restoration work.  - [Dental Crowns and Bridges in Los Altos, CA](https://midpendental.com/services/dental-crowns-and-bridges/): A dental crown is a custom-made covering for your tooth. Tooth crowns, or tooth caps, are used when the damage to the tooth is too extensive to be repaired by a filling. When a tooth is severely damaged by decay or injury, a crown can be used to cover and protect the tooth after the damage is removed.  - [Dental Veneers](https://midpendental.com/services/cosmetic-dentistry/veneers/): Dental veneers are a custom-made cover, or overlay, for the front of your teeth that look and feel natural. We use porcelain for our dental veneers because we love the results porcelain offers. Porcelain mimics the appearance of natural teeth, including the way they reflect light. Porcelain veneers are also more stain-resistant than other common tooth veneer materials.  - [Root Canals](https://midpendental.com/services/endodontics-root-canal-treatment/): An infected tooth can cause all kinds of problems for both your oral health and your overall well-being. If you have an infected tooth, it is important that you get treatment as soon as possible.

Instead, it is the gum tissue that is modified to expose more of the tooth, thereby making the tooth look longer. In some cases, bone is also removed or recontoured by your dentist as part of the crown lengthening process.  - [Prosthodontics in Los Altos, CA](https://midpendental.com/services/mppro/): https://midpendental.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/What-Is-A-Prosthodontist_-_-Mid-Peninsula-Dental-Specialists.mp4 - [Periodontics in Los Altos, CA](https://midpendental.com/services/mpp/): Mid-Peninsula Periodontics is a core member of Mid-Peninsula Dental Specialists.
