• Gum Tissue Harvesting - Receding Gum Surgery
  An EXTREMELY GRAPHIC (warning - excising of live tissue is demonstrated) film clip that provides a visual outline of the steps involved in Periodontal tissue harvesting. In this particular treatment, a patient is undergoing gum tissue grafting to eliminate gum recession caused by periodontitis.

• Gum Recession Repair
  A GRAPHIC 8 minute video demonstrating an entire gum grafting procedure, from start to finish, for repairing tissue damage caused by gum recession. Grafting tissue was provided by the patient, excised from the roof of the mouth. Watch and learn how severe gum recession on one or more tooth structures can be modified to produce the desired aesthetic results and to help manage or halt on-going bone loss.

• Sinus Lift Surgery
  Edited for graphic content and time constraints, this media segment outlines the process and procedures for performing a Sinus Lift surgery. See actual surgery sequences involved for performing sinus lift surgery that is accompanied by the insertion of bone grafting material as needed to fortify a dental implant site. Material provided by Dr. Richard Winter of Milwaukee Wisconsin
  
  
• Assessing the Need for Gum Grafting
  A brief discussion of anatomical characteristics of gum recession and the assessment for developing treatment for gum tissue replacement grafts. In this particular case the recession discussion is limited to an upper jaw tooth structure. Relationships between soft tissue loss and impending hard tissue (bone) loss are further detailed.
