Gum Contouring
Some patients are delighted with their teeth’ size, shape, and colour—yet are self-conscious of their gums. Prominent or excessive gum tissue, also known as a “gummy smile,” can cover up a significant portion of the teeth, sometimes causing them to look uneven. This can make the teeth appear short and distract from your smile.
Your Edmonton dentist at Summit Dental can carefully remove excess tissue and recontour the gums to look proportional and complement the teeth. The result is a more balanced gums-to-teeth ratio, producing the beautiful smile you desire.
