Gum Recontouring (Cosmetic Gingivectomy)
Reshape your gumline comfortably with our advanced laser or traditional techniques, harmonizing your smile and boosting your self-confidence.
Excess gum tissue - sometimes referred to as a “gummy smile” - can shorten the appearance of your teeth to make your smile look small. A gum recontouring procedure reshapes the gums and lengthens the appearance of the teeth to achieve a big, beautiful smile! By recontouring gum tissue with our Picasso diode laser, we can minimize your recovery time and improve balance and symmetry between the teeth and gums.
The Process
We believe a beautiful smile begins with the right communication and a commitment to dental health. Each visit to our office starts with a conversation about you: your health and your dental needs and goals.
1
We will administer local anesthesia to numb the area.
2
We then use a special laser or scalpel to remove excess gum tissue and reshape the gum line.

Finally, we will provide aftercare instructions to ensure proper healing and a successful outcome.
