What is Gum Recontouring?
Gum recontouring, also known as gum reshaping, is a dental procedure that involves removing excess gum tissue to create a more proportional gum line. Whether your gums cover too much of your teeth or are uneven, this procedure helps sculpt the gums to create a natural, more aesthetically pleasing smile.
Why Do You Need Gum Recontouring?
Gum recontouring is ideal for individuals who have:
- Excess Gum Tissue: If too much of your gum is visible when you smile, making your teeth appear shorter than they actually are.
- Uneven Gum Line: A gum line that is uneven or asymmetric, which can affect the overall appearance of your smile.
- Gummy Smile: When the gums overshadow the teeth, creating a disproportionate smile.
- Improved Tooth Visibility: For those who want more of their natural teeth to show, gum recontouring can be the perfect solution.
