Gum Contouring / Gingivoplasty

What it is: A dental laser can reshape selected gum tissue to improve contour, access or cleansability.

When considered: It may be considered after evaluating gum health, tissue thickness, bone and the planned restoration.

What to expect: We begin with an examination and appropriate records, explain the findings, and tailor the sequence to the tooth, tissues, bite, health and goals.

Limits and next step: Suitability, timing and outcome depend on the clinical findings. Alternatives, maintenance and referral needs are reviewed before treatment.
