Gum Contouring in Fresno

Gum contouring, or gingival sculpting, is a cosmetic procedure that reshapes and redefines the gum line to achieve a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing appearance. It’s often performed to address issues like excessive gum exposure or an uneven gumline. Dentists use this procedure to treat uneven or “gummy smiles” (when you have extra gum tissue that covers parts of your teeth).

Gum contouring is a cosmetic procedure that reshapes the gumline to create a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing smile. It is often used to correct a “gummy smile,” uneven gum lines, or excess gum tissue. The procedure is typically performed using a soft tissue laser or traditional surgical techniques, depending on our patient’s needs.

Gum contouring is a minimally invasive procedure, and local anesthesia is used to ensure comfort. Patients may experience mild soreness or swelling after the procedure, but recovery is quick, and discomfort is usually manageable with over-the-counter pain relievers.

Gum contouring provides permanent results since excess gum tissue does not grow back. With proper oral care and regular dental checkups, your reshaped gumline will remain beautifully contoured for years to come.
