How It Works?

Here’s the typical process for gum contouring & gum lift at our clinic:

1️⃣ Consultation & Assessment
We’ll evaluate your gum-tooth proportions, take photographs, possibly digital scans, and discuss your smile goals.

2️⃣ Planning the Treatment
Decide whether laser or scalpel method works best, map the new gum line, measure symmetry, choose shape.

3️⃣ Procedure
– Laser gum contouring: A precise laser removes or recontours gum tissue; faster healing, less bleeding.
– Traditional surgical (scalpel) method: May be used if a larger amount of tissue needs removal or the case is complex.

4️⃣ Healing & アフターケア
Expect mild swelling/discomfort for a few days. We’ll give you post‑op care instructions: cleaning routine, foods to avoid, medications if needed. Follow‑up visits to monitor healing.

5️⃣ Final Results & メンテナンス
Once healed, your gums frame your teeth just right. Good oral hygiene and routine dental cleanings help preserve the results long‑term.
