Gum Treatment & Aesthetics
Healthy Gums for a More Balanced Smile
Healthy gums are an essential part of both oral health and an attractive smile. We provide specialized gum treatment and gum aesthetics, ranging from treating gum inflammation and bleeding to aesthetic procedures designed to improve the shape, level, and overall appearance of the gums.
Each patient receives a thorough evaluation to identify the underlying condition and determine the most appropriate treatment, using modern techniques to achieve comfortable, effective, and natural-looking results.
What Conditions Require Gum Treatment?
Gum problems can appear in different forms. Common conditions we treat include:
- Bleeding gums while brushing or flossing.
- Red, swollen, or tender gums.
- Persistent bad breath.
- Gum recession and exposed tooth roots.
- Tooth sensitivity caused by exposed roots.
- Plaque and tartar buildup.
- Gingivitis.
- Periodontal disease.
- Loose teeth caused by weakened supporting tissues.
- Uneven or irregular gum lines.
- Excessive gum display when smiling (Gummy Smile).
Gum Treatment
Treatment varies depending on the patient's condition and the severity of the problem and may include:
Professional Gum Cleaning
Removing plaque, tartar, and bacteria from around the teeth and below the gum line to help control inflammation and improve gum health.
Periodontal Treatment
Treating gum disease according to its severity, with the goal of controlling infection and protecting the tissues that support the teeth.
Gum Recession Treatment
In selected cases, specialized procedures may be used to cover exposed tooth roots, improve gum appearance, and reduce sensitivity.
Gum Aesthetics
Gums play an important role in the appearance of your smile. Aesthetic gum procedures can help improve the shape, level, and symmetry of the gums to create better harmony between the gums, teeth, and facial features.
Common Aesthetic Concerns
Gummy Smile
Reducing excessive gum display when smiling to create a more balanced and harmonious smile.
Uneven Gum Line
Correcting differences in gum levels around the teeth to achieve a more symmetrical gum line.
Gum Contouring
Reshaping the gum tissue in selected cases to improve its proportion and harmony with the teeth, particularly as part of cosmetic or restorative dental treatments.
