What is Gum Contouring and Reshaping?

Gum contouring surgery is a procedure performed to improve the appearance of smiles. It is also called gum reshaping or gum tissue sculpting surgery. Gum contouring surgery is performed to cosmetically improve the appearance of smiles or as part of gum surgery to treat gum diseases. Nonsurgical gum shaping procedures are also performed. Traditional gum contouring surgery takes about three hours to complete and laser gum contouring and radiosurgery may take about one to two hours.    

How is Gum Contouring and Reshaping performed?

Traditional gum contouring surgery is performed by the surgeon making an incision in the gum tissue. The surgeon may remove or graft bone or gum tissue as required to give gums the required shape and size. Laser gum surgery is performed using a diode laser to remove excessive gum tissue and give them an even appearance. Bi-polar electrosurgery using a radiosurgery unit and a low current to cut gum tissue is also used for gum contouring.

Dental Confidence - Dental Clinic in the UK

Dental Confidence

24 Westwood Road, Southampton, SO17 1DN
More and more people are turning to dental implants as a permanent solution for missing teeth. Rather than a bridge or denture the dental implant sits in the existing bone where a tooth was once located. Once fixed, implants remain there for the rest of  life. The beauty of dental implant retained crowns and bridges are that they are not fixed to other teeth and therefore cause no damage to the surrounding areas. At the Southampton Implant Centre we focus exclusively on dental implants. We ensure you receive the very best treatment using the latest modern techniques and equipment.
