What is Gum Recontouring?

Gum recontouring is a solely cosmetic dental procedure that removes excessive gum tissue to improve the look of your smile. It’s an excellent option for patients who experience the following:

Too much of the gums show when smiling
An uneven gumline
Additional gum tissue that bulges around your teeth
Teeth that appear stubby or too short

The Process of Gum Recontouring

While some cosmetic dentists may utilize a traditional scalpel to complete this procedure, our team at Advanced Smile Design uses a more leading-edge and comfortable technique. Using our soft tissue laser, we’re able to precisely remove excess gum tissue to reveal more of your dental structure. Plus, because the dental laser cauterizes the tissue as it removes it, you won’t have to worry about receiving sutures, and it dramatically reduces post-operative discomfort and bleeding.

After your procedure, it will take some time for the local anesthesia to wear off. Once it does, you may experience some soreness. Over-the-counter pain medications can help make you more comfortable. Many of our patients are able to return to their routine work schedules the following day.

The Benefits of Gum Recontouring

Enhanced Aesthetics: With a smile that showcases your teeth, you can feel more confident in social situations, while posing for photos, and during other important life events!
Minimally Invasive: Because we utilize a soft tissue laser for this procedure, you can ensure that your process will be as quick, precise, and pain-free as possible.
Permanent Results: After your treatment, you won’t have to worry about coming in for routine touch-ups because your results will be completely permanent.
