What Is Gum Contouring & Cosmetic Gum Surgery
Gum contouring is a minimally invasive cosmetic dental procedure that gently reshapes your gum tissue to enhance the appearance of your smile. Whether you have a “gummy” smile, an uneven gum line, or need gum reshaping as part of a periodontal treatment, this procedure helps create a more proportional, symmetrical look.
