Orthodontic treatment involves carefully and gradually straightening crooked teeth to bring them into proper alignment. The treatment is designed specifically to allow the jawbone structure and periodontal tissues around your teeth roots to change and shift along with your teeth. At the completion of orthodontic treatment, your teeth will be more properly aligned, and to ensure that your smile retains that symmetry, your dentist might suggest gum contouring to perfect the frame around your teeth.
A cosmetic smile makeover can mean many different things, and is tailored specifically to meet every patient’s unique needs. For instance, many patients receive porcelain veneers to completely transform their smiles with minimal changes to their teeth. After improving their tooth structure, however, many patients can benefit from gum contouring to ensure that their gum line still properly outlines their newly improved teeth. As the final touch, the procedure can ensure the esthetic results of your complete smile makeover plan.
Whether to correct excessive gum tissues or to put the finishing touches on your smile after orthodontic or cosmetic treatment, gum contouring can offer a number of benefits.
