Gum contouring in London for a gummy smile

There are individuals who are self-conscious when too much of their gums show each time they smile. This “gummy smile” can actually be treated by a procedure called gum contouring or reshaping.

The procedure involves the trimming of the extra gum tissue with a laser, after being marked by the dentist. The laser is also effective in sealing the blood vessels involved, thus reduces the bleeding.

The results of the procedure are almost immediate and you just need to give your gum time to heal. If a large area of the gum was trimmed, you can expect a longer healing period. Sometimes, a portion of your bone will have to be trimmed as well to prevent the gum tissue from growing back. You can expect a gum re-shaping procedure to be quite affordable.
