Feel Confident About Your Smile’s Appearance

Cosmetic gum surgery will give you an even and more attractive gumline. It’s also a necessary procedure if your teeth are too short for dental crowns or other restorations. Our team combines artistry with advanced dental techniques to sculpt your ideal smile. Your experienced team, led by Dr. Lemay, offers gentle and precise cosmetic gum surgery techniques.

Here is what you can expect:

  • Initial Consultation – Your dentist will begin with a thorough exam and discussion of your smile goals. They will also determine if your smile is in good enough health for the cosmetic procedure. If necessary, they will treat any cavities or gum infections first.
  • Treatment Planning – Next, your dentist will identify which areas of your gumline need to be modified. They will consider your overall facial symmetry, the position of your lips when you smile, and other factors.
  • Day of Procedure – Your dentist will use laser technology to remove any unnecessary gum tissue. This technology ensures precise and comfortable treatment. If you are restoring your gumline, your dentist will proceed with grafting in the gum material. We can offer sedation options if necessary.

If your gum surgery is related to preparing your mouth for veneers or crowns, your dentist may proceed with their placement. You can also combine this treatment with other cosmetic procedures, such as teeth whitening or tooth bonding.
