Before and After Crown Lengthening To Fix a Gummy Smile
Gum Contouring
Gum contouring, also known as gum reshaping or tissue sculpting, is a delicate cosmetic procedure that artfully adjusts the shape and proportion of your gum tissue to create a more balanced smile. This innovative treatment can address the following common concerns:
- Excess gum tissue: If your smile appears “gummy,” meaning three or more millimeters of gum tissue show when you smile, making your teeth look short or disproportionate.
- Uneven gum line: When your gum heights vary across different teeth, creating an asymmetrical appearance.
- Receding gums: Gum tissue has pulled back, exposing too much of the tooth root.
- Gum tissue adjustments: This may be needed for cosmetic restorations like veneers or crowns that require precise gum positioning and more tooth surface to adhere to.
Using advanced techniques and gentle precision, we can sculpt your gum tissue to reveal more of your natural teeth or create a more harmonious gum line. We typically perform this procedure under local anesthesia or another form of sedation to ensure your comfort.
“I had some gum recession, and my regular dentist recommended Dr. Laudenbach as the best periodontist around.Dr. Laudenbach is a very skilled and talented professional. He made sure I was comfortable during the procedure and addressed all of my concerns. I’m very happy with the result.”- Joan, Gum Grafting
Crown Lengthening
Another procedure that removes excess gum tissue is called crown lengthening, which exposes more of your tooth, making it appear longer. We use advanced Fotona® laser technology to gently trim the extra gum tissue away to reveal the beautiful teeth underneath. You can get this procedure alone to make your smile look more even or in preparation for the placement of a new crown, veneer, or other cosmetic restoration to ensure an optimal end result.
Gum Grafting
If your gums recede due to gum disease, brushing too aggressively, or genetics, the tooth roots become exposed, changing your smile’s appearance and exposing your teeth to harmful bacteria. The roots of teeth are softer than the crown portion, so proper gum coverage is essential to help avoid sensitivity, tooth decay, and potential tooth loss.
Gum grafting, which uses tissue from another area of your mouth to cover the exposed tooth roots and create an even gum line, may restore your smile’s appearance. During this procedure, we use Emdogain®, a gel containing a mix of natural growth proteins, to speed healing and promote tissue regeneration.
Benefits of Cosmetic Periodontal Surgery in Philadelphia
While receding or excess gum tissue is an aesthetic concern, it can also impact your mental health and personal relationships. You may cover your mouth when you laugh, avoid smiling in pictures, or constantly think about how your smile looks when you talk. Cosmetic periodontal surgery offers numerous advantages that extend beyond mere aesthetics, including the following:
- Enhanced smile appearance: Properly proportioned gums create a more balanced, natural-looking smile.
- Improved self-confidence: Having an even, proportionate smile can make you feel more confident and willing to fully express yourself.
- Better oral health: In some cases, reshaping gum tissue can make teeth easier to clean, reducing the risk of decay and gum disease.
- Support for dental restorations: Exposing more tooth structure creates an ideal foundation for cosmetic dental work, such as veneers or crowns, which need space to bond fully to the teeth.
- Long-lasting results: With proper care, including brushing, flossing, and regular cleanings, the results of your gum contouring procedure can last for many years.
Cosmetic periodontal treatments at our Philadelphia office can help you finally achieve the smile you’ve always wanted. The transformation offers dramatic results, giving you results you’re proud to show off.
