GUM CONTOURING


 Gum contouring is the subtle remodelling of the gum line that frames your smile. Because the technique requires minor oral surgery to cut away the surplus gum tissues, you may require dental anaesthesia before the operation. It is, however, a minimally invasive technique that focuses primarily on regions of tissue that cover too much of your tooth structure.

The immediate advantage of gum contouring is the increased confidence you will have knowing that your gum line matches your teeth in a healthy and  attractive way.On the contrary, trimming away extra gum tissue has brief merits for the health of your teeth and gums. Gingivitis develops when oral bacteria settle behind your gum tissues, where your toothbrush and floss cannot reach them. Gum overgrowth might provide different hiding spots for dental germs. This implies that gum contouring can lower your risk of gum disease by limiting the ability of hazardous oral germs to hide beneath your gums.




Benefits of Gum Contouring

                      Gum contouring may be correct if you are concerned with the number of gums that show when you smile. This procedure may be advantageous if you have ever felt that you have a “gummy” smile or that your gums conceal too much of your teeth.

 Here are the benefits of Gum Contouring:

Removes unnecessary gum tissue

                     GINGIVECTOMY is the surgical treatment of gums. To eliminate pockets between the teeth and gums, the loose, unhealthy gum tissue is removed and reshaped. Gingivectomy gives vision and accessibility to remove calculus and smooth the tooth roots by eliminating the pocket walls. It aids in the removal of excessive gum tissue and the improvement of the gum’s shape.

Enhances your smile

Once you smile or laugh, you may notice too much gum on your teeth, making your smile look unappealing. Gum contouring can help you achieve a more symmetrical smile by removing some of the extra gum tissue. It will make your smile more beautiful and confident.

Helps to prevent and overcome tooth decay

Tooth decay can be avoided by doing the following:

Consuming a healthy, well-balanced diet

Eat and drink healthy foods like soft foods and juices.

Brushing and flossing your teeth at least twice a day

Brush your teeth morning and night daily and properly.

Using fluoride-containing toothpaste and drinking tap water

Use the toothpaste that helps prevent tooth decay and drink tap water rather than mineral water.

Chewing on sweetened bubble gum

Try sour bubblegum to clear the tooth decay in place of a sweet one.

Maintaining enough hydration

Drinking lots of water or juices to get hydrated.

Saliva aids in the prevention of tooth decay

It already proves that saliva is the best to cure any tooth injury and so on

After procedure for fast recovery, you should follow these steps:

Consider the dentist’s suggestions on how to care for your teeth.

Brushing and flossing should be done gently.

Avoid meals that are firm, crunchy, or hot.

Rest after the surgery to guarantee a speedy recovery.

For many days, eat soft, cold meals.

Gum contouring is a Long-term solution

Unlike other dental treatments, gum contouring only has to be done once. It is a permanent medical operation because gum tissue does not recover once removed.

If you’ve always felt self-conscious about your uneven or protruding gum line, now is the time to take action. The effort and money spent on laser gum contouring are well spent.

It’s a rapid and easy recovery, and you finally walk out of your dentist’s office with a confident smile!

Is Gum Lift Painful?

Gum contouring is a non-surgical technique performed by your dentist or periodontist. It is performed to repair an uneven gum line or remove extra tissue, sometimes known as a “gummy smile.” It is also used to repair and protect the region from future harm in the treatment of gum recession.

Allowing gum recession to continue untreated can result in bone loss in the region, causing teeth to loosen and possibly fall out. The level of discomfort you may expect is determined by each patient’s gum lift pain tolerance and the scope of the work that needs to be done.
