Gum Tissue Sculpting

Gum tissue sculpting is used to enhance a smile that is overshadowed by excess gum tissue.

By contouring the gum tissue around the teeth, Dr. Thomas can expose more of the enamel, creating a whiter, fuller smile that enhances the look of the entire face. Gum tissue sculpting can correct a gummy smile, or teeth that appear uneven or short.

Gum tissue sculpting can also be used to correct deep pockets in the gums caused by periodontal disease.
