Gum shaping, also known as gingival contouring, is the process of reshaping the gum tissue around your teeth.
A cosmetic dental treatment that can help reinvent your smile and improve your oral health, gingival sculpting involves a minimally invasive laser to remove and re-sculpt uneven or excessive gum tissue.
Sculpting processes can be performed for cosmetic reasons, as well as for oral health reasons such as poor dental hygiene. The latter can result in the formation of deep gum pockets due to improper tooth brushing and the accumulation of calculus and plaque.
It also can help address aesthetic concerns of teeth that appear “too small” or are unusually shaped. This may result when the surrounding gum tissue has grown down and over a large portion of the teeth.
