What is Gingivo Periosteo Plasty (GPP)?

Gingivo Periosteo Plasty (GPP) is a specialized surgical procedure aimed at improving the health and aesthetics of the gums and periosteum, which is the layer of connective tissue that covers the bones. This procedure involves reshaping and reconstructing the gingival tissues and periosteum to enhance gum health, appearance, and function. Dr. Ghulam Qadir Fayyaz, renowned for his expertise in plastic and reconstructive surgeries, offers advanced GPP services to achieve optimal results for his patients.

GPP is particularly beneficial for patients experiencing gum recession, which can expose the roots of the teeth, leading to sensitivity, increased risk of decay, and aesthetic concerns. By carefully reconstructing the gingival tissues, Dr. Fayyaz ensures that the gums are restored to a healthier, more functional state. The procedure also addresses issues related to the periosteum, which plays a crucial role in supporting the overall structure of the gums and teeth.

The surgical approach to GPP involves precise techniques to graft tissue, reshape the gums, and enhance the structural integrity of the periosteum. This not only improves the health and appearance of the gums but also supports better oral hygiene and reduces the risk of future periodontal disease. Dr. Fayyaz's expertise in advanced surgical techniques ensures that each patient receives personalized care tailored to their specific needs, resulting in a more aesthetically pleasing and healthier smile.
During the evaluation process, Dr. Fayyaz examines the patient’s medical history, conducts a physical examination, and utilizes advanced imaging techniques to fully understand the extent of the cleft and any associated issues. This comprehensive assessment helps in designing a surgical plan that not only focuses on closing the cleft but also on improving overall function and appearance. Collaboration with other specialists, such as speech therapists and orthodontists, is often necessary to provide a holistic treatment approach.

The Gingivo Periosteo Plasty (GPP) Procedure

Pre-Surgery Consultation

Dr. Ghulam Qadir Fayyaz begins with a comprehensive consultation to assess the patient's gum health, discuss their goals, and plan the GPP procedure accordingly. Detailed discussions ensure that patients are well-informed and comfortable with the treatment plan.

Surgical Process

Gingivo Periosteo Plasty (GPP) is typically performed under local anesthesia. Dr. Ghulam Qadir Fayyaz carefully reshapes and reconstructs the gum tissues and periosteum to achieve the desired aesthetic and functional outcomes. The procedure aims to improve gum contour, stability, and overall oral health.

Post-Surgery Care and Recovery

Post-operative care includes instructions for oral hygiene, medication, and follow-up appointments to monitor healing progress. Dr. Ghulam Qadir Fayyaz ensures that patients receive comprehensive support during their recovery period.

Indications for Gingivo Periosteo Plasty (GPP)

GPP is recommended for individuals with various gum and periosteal issues, including:

  • Gum Recession or Periodontal Disease Affecting Gum Health: Patients experiencing gum recession, where the gum tissue pulls away from the teeth, exposing the roots, or those with periodontal disease that damages the gums and supporting structures, can benefit from GPP. The procedure helps to cover exposed roots, reduce sensitivity, and prevent further gum damage.
  • Irregular Gum Contours Affecting Smile Aesthetics: Irregular or uneven gum lines can detract from the overall appearance of a smile. GPP can reshape and contour the gums, creating a more symmetrical and aesthetically pleasing gum line that enhances the appearance of the teeth and smile.
  • Functional Issues Related to Gum Tissue: Functional problems such as difficulty maintaining oral hygiene due to irregular gum contours or gum tissue that does not provide adequate protection for the teeth can be addressed with GPP. By improving the structure and health of the gums, the procedure supports better oral hygiene and overall dental health.

The Surgical Process

The Surgical Process

The surgical process for Gingivo Periosteo Plasty (GPP) involves several steps to ensure optimal outcomes. Dr. Fayyaz begins with a thorough evaluation of the patient's oral health, including a detailed examination of the gums and periosteum. Imaging studies may be used to assess the extent of gum recession or periodontal disease and to plan the surgical approach.


During the procedure, Dr. Fayyaz carefully removes damaged or diseased gum tissue and reshapes the remaining healthy tissue. Tissue grafts may be used to cover exposed roots or to augment areas with insufficient gum tissue. The periosteum is also addressed, with techniques to enhance its structure and support. Sutures are placed to secure the grafts and to promote healing. Post-operative care is crucial to the success of GPP. Dr. Fayyaz provides detailed instructions on oral hygiene, diet, and activity restrictions to support healing. Follow-up visits are scheduled to monitor progress and to address any concerns promptly.

Long-Term Care and Follow-Up

Long-term care is essential to maintain the benefits of GPP. Dr. Ghulam Qadir Fayyaz emphasizes the importance of regular dental check-ups, proper oral hygiene practices, and a healthy diet to support gum health. Patients are encouraged to visit their dentist regularly for professional cleanings and evaluations to ensure that their gums remain healthy and stable.


Dr. Fayyaz and his team provide ongoing support and education to help patients maintain their oral health. This includes personalized advice on brushing and flossing techniques, recommendations for dental products, and tips for maintaining a healthy lifestyle. By taking a proactive approach to oral care, patients can enjoy the long-term benefits of GPP and maintain a beautiful, healthy smile for years to come.
