GUM AESTHETICS

GUM AESTHETICS

The appearance of the gum tissue that entirely surrounds the tooth is as important aesthetically as the appearance of the teeth themselves. Having beautiful teeth and perfect prosthetics will not be enough. Unattractive gum tissue will continuously cause us aesthetic problems. It is extremely important to make this arrangement, which forms the frame of the teeth along with the lips, as aesthetic as possible. Swelling, bruising, shininess, and bleeding gums caused by gum inflammations are among the most common problems encountered today. You should not forget that you need to pay attention to your oral hygiene with the treatment method best applied by your dentist. Thanks to advancements in laser systems, treatment durations have accelerated today. This has also reduced the likelihood of recurrence of the discomfort.

Gummy smile is the condition where excessive gum is visible during smiling. By designing the smile, the excess gum is identified and comfortably adjusted to the desired size with a laser, painlessly and with almost no bleeding. The procedure does not affect the patient's social life at all afterwards.

The active use of the laser reduces bleeding during surgery and accelerates the healing process.

Inflammation can occur in the gums, or gum recession due to aging may be observed. The biggest problem accompanying this is the black gaps that form between the teeth. Gum recession makes the teeth appear longer, negatively affecting aesthetics. In such cases, gum grafting should be performed to close these areas.

Melanin pigmentation mostly causes the pink color of the gums to darken in darker-skinned individuals. Remember, this discoloration can be easily removed following a 15-minute laser treatment.
