Gum Contouring (Gum Reshaping)

Quick Overview Section

What Is This Treatment?

Gum contouring is a cosmetic dental procedure that reshapes the gum line to improve the balance and appearance of your smile.

Using advanced techniques, excess gum tissue is carefully removed or reshaped to reveal more of the tooth surface, creating a more symmetrical and proportionate look.

This treatment is often combined with veneers or crowns as part of a complete smile makeover.
