Receive Safe, Minimally Invasive Care

Dr. Lee prioritizes your comfort by using technology that ensures the entire process goes smoothly. He'll use a safe and gentle laser to gently remove excess gum tissue. This advanced technology offers numerous benefits:

Precise Results

The laser pinpoints only the gum tissue that needs to be removed, so you can feel confident about the outcome of treatment.

More Comfortable

You’ll experience minimal discomfort during and after the procedure, as lasers cauterize blood vessels and reduce swelling.

Encourages Healing

Lasers promote faster healing, allowing you to enjoy the results of your treatment sooner. You won’t have to avoid certain foods or take added care with oral hygiene.

Reduced Post-Operative Infection

Laser technology minimizes the risk of infection. The overall process is safer compared to methods that involve incisions.

Even Out Your Gumline With Reshaping

You are the only person who matters when determining if you have a gummy smile. If you feel too much gumline shows when you smile, then a gum reshaping treatment is right for you. Many patients also need this treatment if they are getting dental crowns or veneers and their teeth are too short for the procedure.

One of the reasons for a gummy smile is infected gum tissue. Gum disease can cause your gums to become red and swollen. So before moving forward with gum contouring, Dr. Lee will ensure you have good oral health first. The non-invasive nature of lasers will provide a more comfortable and stress-free experience. However, if you still have anxiety, sedation through laughing gas is available.

Frequently Asked Questions About Gummy Smile Treatment

What is gummy smile treatment?
Gum reshaping at our office works by removing excess gum tissue with a special dental laser. Reshaping can help if you have too much gum tissue or if your teeth appear too short. Since the treatment is performed with a laser, there is no cutting or stitches involved. The laser instantly seals your gums, and the healing time is minimal.
Is gummy smile treatment painful?
Your gummy smile procedure should be comfortable here. We use a dental laser that is specially designed to gently remove gum tissue with no cutting, no scalpel, and no stitches required. In addition, we can use a local anesthetic that will ensure you don't feel any pain at all. Sedation is also available.
How much does gum reshaping cost?
Gummy smile treatment can vary in price, depending on the level of complexity and extent of the treatment. We would need to examine your mouth first and possibly take a set of X-rays before we could give you a price. Once we have a treatment plan in mind, we can give you specific details on the cost of your individual treatment.
