Gummy Smile in Coconut Creek
Gummy smile contouring helps reduce excess visible gum tissue and reveal a balanced, natural-looking smile with more confidence.
What Is Gum Contouring?
Gum contouring reshapes the gumline when excess tissue hides too much of the teeth. The treatment can improve uneven gum edges, tooth proportions, and the appearance of swollen gums.
- Uneven teeth or gumlines
- Uneven ridges and grooves
- Excess gum tissue
- Inflammation-related puffiness
Many patients combine gum contouring with porcelain veneers to achieve a brighter, more proportionate smile. Sedation dentistry is available when extra comfort is helpful.
