Gum Reshaping Aftercare Products and Methods

Gum reshaping, also known as gum contouring or gum sculpting, is a precise cosmetic dentistry procedure offered by London Dental Specialists to enhance your smile's aesthetics. This advanced treatment uses dental lasers to carefully remove excess gum tissue, creating a more balanced and appealing gum line. Our expert periodontist employs laser dentistry techniques to ensure minimal discomfort and faster healing compared to traditional methods.

The gum lift procedure is particularly effective for patients with a 'gummy smile', where excessive gum tissue covers too much of the tooth surface. By sculpting the gum line, we can reveal more of your natural teeth, dramatically improving your smile's appearance. This tissue sculpting process also addresses uneven gum lines, creating a more harmonious and attractive dental aesthetic.

Beyond cosmetic benefits, gum reshaping can also contribute to improved oral health. By reducing excess gum tissue, we can sometimes make it easier to clean between teeth and along the gum line, potentially lowering the risk of gum disease. Our periodontist will thoroughly assess your individual needs to determine if gum reshaping is the right solution for your smile enhancement goals.

At London Dental Specialists, we combine cutting-edge technology with expert periodontal care to deliver outstanding results. Our gum reshaping treatments are tailored to each patient's unique smile, ensuring natural-looking outcomes that complement your overall facial aesthetics. We pride ourselves on offering this sophisticated dental procedure as part of our comprehensive range of cosmetic and periodontal services.
