Laser gum therapy is becoming more and more popular as dentistry modernizes. Here at Goel Dental Aesthetics, we use laser gum therapy in many different procedures. The number one use of gum laser therapy is for a procedure called a gingivectomy. Some patients suffer from a “gummy smile” which means they show too much of their gums when smiling. We use the dental laser in some cases to remove some of the tissue and expose more of your natural tooth. Please schedule a consultation to determine if gum laser therapy is right for you.
A gum lift is a cosmetic procedure involving lasering and reshaping the gums to balance the proportion of the teeth and gums to create a more symmetric and harmonious smile. Because of our new laser technology, there is almost virtually zero discomfort associated with gum contouring and patients are able to go back to normal daily activities immediately. Gum laser therapy can also be used in conjunction with veneer smile makeovers.
A gum lift has many benefits, including eliminating excess gum tissue to remove a “gummy smile”, improving symmetry between teeth and gums, and boosting your confidence with a more beautiful smile.
