What is Gum Contouring?
Gum contouring is a cosmetic dental procedure that reshapes or removes excess gum tissue to improve the appearance of your smile. Using advanced laser technology, our dentists precisely sculpt your gum line, creating a more symmetrical and attractive look.
Whether you have too much gum tissue covering your teeth or an uneven gum line, this simple treatment can dramatically enhance your smile’s balance and beauty.
Who is an Ideal Candidate for Gum Contouring?
You may be an ideal candidate for gum contouring if you:
- Have a gummy smile that makes your teeth look short
- Notice uneven gums that affect your smile’s symmetry
- Want to enhance your smile’s proportions before veneers or crowns
- Are looking for a minimally invasive, long-lasting cosmetic solution
At Lawrence Dental Centre in Scarborough, we’ll carefully assess your gums and teeth to determine if gum contouring is right for you.
