Patients who have excessive gum tissue (gummy smile) can have teeth with a shortened appearance. Having excessive gum tissue can sometimes cause a person to feel very self-conscious. Excessive gum tissue can be enhanced by using a cosmetic procedure call gingivectomy. This procedure reshapes the gums to provide a more pleasing smile. It is performed in our office using a soft tissue laser with very little discomfort to the patient and the recovery time is minimal. In some cases, we don’t have to use a needle, just a topical numbing gel. Your new smile will look beautiful and better that you ever thought possible!
Shown below is a recent case completed in our office with the actual results in 2 days.
