Now a painless procedure
Gum grafting, which is also known as gingival sculpting or gum contouring/reshaping is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that involves reshaping and removing excess gum tissue around your teeth. The entire process is completely painless.
Why would you need to reshape your gums?
While teeth are usually the superstar when it comes to beautiful smiles, we can’t become complacent about our gums with the following cosmetic problems often being the reason behind the procedure…
Gummy Smile – Overexposed gums visible when smiling
Uneven Gums – Asymmetrical gingival contours
Loss of Papillae – Small amounts of gum tissue between your teeth
Deep Gum Pockets – A side effect of improper teeth brushing and the accumulation of calculus and plaque
Have a chat with our team to see if your gum issues make you a good candidate for gum grafting. Keep in mind, that if you have advanced periodontal disease (gum disease) you may also require gum surgery to repair the damaged gums and protect the remaining healthy tissue.
Will there be any downtime?
As gum reshaping is safe, fast and completely painless, you can continue your normal activities right after treatment, and the results are permanent. Get in contact with our team of dentists here at Paramount Dental Sydney to learn more about how gum shaping can improve the look of your mouth and smile today.
How much does it cost?
The cost of gum grafting starts at $1200. There are other factors, like the severity, that may increase the cost. Remember, we have payment options available to suit your budget.
Remember, your gums may recede over time so it’s important to keep regular dental appointments so your dentist can keep track of this. Most importantly, ensure your teeth brushing technique isn’t damaging your gums. Pressing harder doesn’t make your teeth cleaner and will almost certainly have a negative affect on teeth and gums.
