I had gum graft surgery with Dr. Esfeh. When it comes to this type of surgery, you need not only a periodontist but one who is extremely skilled with the details of the surgery; a periodontist “artist” if I can use the term. I have has one other gum graft from a previous doctor which was covered under my dental plan. While somewhat less expensive the r results of the first surgery, which took about 40 minutes, did thicken the gum tissue but covered none of the gum recession, leaving the roots still vulnerable to hot/cold sensitivity and aesthetically less pleasing. Dr. Esfeh, working with two assistants took over two hours to carefully and with extreme precision cover all exposed recession. The results truly exceeded expectations and I am not a person easily impressed. Additional Comments: 1) Initial meeting was where the entire procedure was explained in great detail and written down so you would remember it when you get home. 2) Scheduling is not immediate, ~ 5 months
