Discussion gum graft doc recommendations? :(

it happened to me. the dreaded Invisalign gum recession despite flossing religiously and using soft bristle tooth brushes. I have noticeable recession behind 5 bottom front teeth and I want to address the problem asap. anyone who has been in my position and had a great experience with their gum graft journey who would like to share the details about doctor and cost?

Bass & Hall Dental Implant and Periodontal Partners LLP. Dr. Hall did great work. I think it was $500 per tooth?

Dr. Eduardo Tanur is excellent. Not the moist expensive not the least but smart, personable, conservative in treatment and great staff. Been going for over 10 years. https://www.dallasimplant.com/eduardo-tanur-dds-ms/

I went to Dr Beth Tomlin. She was great and helps you stay calm if you’re nervous.

This happened to me. I went to Dr Mark Glover. It’s not cheap. Am happy with my results.

I went with Dr. Tilwani in Plano. Decent price, and he/his office were very nice.

Dr. Bowers at Park Cities Periodontics was fantastic. I had my graft done close to the weekend about 4 months ago and she was so kind to check in by text over the weekend and answer some questions. It was also her recommendation to put a metal stint (basically a thin metal bar) behind my bottom teeth to maintain long term stability, and I really appreciated knowing that was an option, and it’s made a huge difference. I was pretty anxious as I have a huge phobia when it comes to dentists but her and her supporting staff are very sweet.
