gum sculpting london

The terms ‘gum contouring’ and ‘gum sculpting’ are used to refer to a surgical procedure where a person's gum line is repositioned so a greater percentage of that person's teeth is revealed. Too much gum or uneven gum levels can detract from an otherwise great looking smile. This can be painlessly corrected by simple gum sculpting.

There can be many variations when it comes to the exact manner in which gum sculpting is performed. In all cases the specifics of the procedure need to be discussed with the prospective patient by the dentist who will perform the procedure after the dentist has examined the patient. However, although gum sculpting is technically a surgical process, a person may find that it is much less troublesome than they might have anticipated. You only need to consult your dentist for specific details.
