Gum contouring, also known as gingivectomy, is a cosmetic dental procedure that reshapes your gum line. If you think your smile shows too much gum tissue, or if your gum line is uneven, gum contouring might be right for you.
The goal of gum contouring is to correct “gummy smiles” and uneven gum lines to create a more balanced and symmetrical appearance. It’s about improving the proportions of your smile and, ultimately, boosting your confidence.
