Gum contouring, also known as gum reshaping or tissue sculpting, is a cosmetic dental procedure used to reshape the gum line to improve the appearance of the teeth. At Dental Care 4 U, gum contouring is performed by Dr. Priyanka Khanna to correct issues such as excessive gum tissue (gummy smile) or uneven gum line.
During the procedure, the dentist uses a laser or a scalpel to carefully remove excess gum tissue and sculpt the gum line to create a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing smile. Gum contouring can also be used to treat gum recession, where the gum tissue pulls back from the teeth, exposing the tooth roots.
The procedure is typically quick and relatively painless, and can significantly enhance the appearance of your smile. If you are interested in gum contouring or would like to learn more about the procedure, schedule a consultation with Dr. Priyanka Khanna at Dental Care 4 U today.
