Well-contoured, pink gum tissue compliments and frames your mouth and teeth. Healthy gums are just as important as well maintained teeth. Soft tissue contouring may involve trimming away excess tissue to eliminate a “gummy” smile or bulking up tissue where a defect is present to create symmetry.
After the procedure takes place, the gum is left to heal and the results are most often immediate. Ultimately this cosmetic soft tissue reshaping procedure will create a consistent even gum line and result in a better looking smile.
