Cosmetic Gum Countouring

Emerald Family Dental provides top-notch cosmetic gum contouring services in Middleborough, Massachusetts. For more information on how this service can benefit your smile, feel free to contact Emerald Family Dental at 508-947-7758. We are eagerly looking forward to your visit with our dentist.

Cosmetic gum contouring, also known as gingivectomy or crown lengthening, is a straightforward procedure that we may suggest if your smile is affected by what is commonly referred to as a "gummy smile." A gummy smile occurs when the teeth appear unusually short due to an excess of gum tissue.

This excess gum tissue may give the appearance of bulky gums or may cover the teeth too extensively. In most cases, a gummy smile results from excessive gum tissue covering teeth of normal length and shape.

To address this issue and give you a smile that you can proudly display, our dentist may recommend cosmetic gum contouring. This treatment involves the removal of a small amount of gum tissue, revealing more of the tooth structure and enhancing the aesthetic appeal of your smile. Cosmetic gum contouring typically only requires a single visit to our office.

If you are dealing with a gummy smile or notice that your gumline is uneven or asymmetrical, cosmetic gum contouring could be an excellent option for enhancing your appearance. Our dentist will assist you in determining whether this procedure is suitable for you.
