Gum Sculpting Will Elevate Your Look

Everyone's gums are different; some high, some low, some in-between. Your gums are unique to you; however, that doesn't mean they can't be improved with some slight adjustments. If you're self-conscious about your gum line and feel it's impacting your smile, gum sculpting is a great option to help reshape your gum line.

The process of gum sculpting involves gently removing excess gum tissue around your teeth or, if you have gum recession, restoring gum tissue. In most cases, you'll remain awake during the procedure, and before your Grand Terrance dentist begins, he'll apply a local anesthetic to the area of interest. The length of the procedure will vary depending on you and your needs. We work hard to ensure we maintain an open dialogue with our patients so you'll know what results to expect and what will occur during your procedure.

The level of discomfort depends on the individual, but generally, you can expect some tenderness afterward. If you're worried about pain or have general anxiety around gum sculpting, please reach out to our Grand Terrace team, and we can discuss your questions and concerns.

The bottom line: gum sculpting is a quick and effective method to relieve any insecurities surrounding your smile. Our Grand Terrance team is here to help you along your smile journey by offering cosmetic care, like gum sculpting, under one comfortable roof. Call today to book your appointment.
