What is laser gum sculpting?

Laser gum sculpting is a noninvasive dental procedure that removes a small amount of gum tissue to reveal more of the natural tooth structure. Cosmetic Dental Associates uses a state-of-the-art diode laser to gently reshape and contour the gums. The laser works by removing precise amounts of tissue while simultaneously cauterizing the area. This minimizes bleeding and discomfort following treatment.

The benefits of laser gum sculpting

Patients choose laser gum sculpting to remove a gummy smile for many reasons. Benefits include:

• Fast treatment time: Laser procedures take about an hour to complete in our Houston, TX, office, making it a convenient solution for busy professionals.
• Quick recovery: The laser seals the tissue as it works, so there is no need for stitches or other forms of closure. Our patients return to their regular routine with minimal downtime.
• Minimal pain: We know that some people are nervous about undergoing dental treatments. However, laser gum sculpting is virtually painless. Dr. Davis and Dr. Guerre use the latest technology to ensure a comfortable experience.
• Long-lasting results: There is no need to worry about gum tissue growing back over time. Laser sculpting provides long-lasting outcomes that our patients have enjoyed for years.

Assessing your candidacy for gum sculpting

A consultation with one of our trained dentists is the best way to determine if laser gum sculpting can meet your needs. During this appointment, Dr. Davis or Dr. Guerre will perform an examination to determine your candidacy. The good news is almost anyone with healthy teeth and gums is eligible for treatment. Ideal candidates must also have realistic expectations about their outcomes.
