Enjoy Easy Laser Treatment

Your dentist uses leading-edge laser technology to reshape your gums with amazing precision. Unlike traditional methods that use scalpels, our laser gently removes excess gum tissue without bleeding or stitches. This makes your gum contouring treatment much more comfortable.

The laser seals as it works, which means your healing time is greatly reduced compared to old-fashioned techniques.

You should be able to return to your normal activities by the very next day, with minimal soreness and a brand-new smile you're excited to show off.

You'll appreciate both the easy treatment and the quick recovery that lets you get back to your life.

Experience True Comfort During Your Treatment

We understand dental visits can make some people nervous. While we can numb your gums with local anesthesia prior to your gum reshaping, you can also receive sedation if you'd like. You can choose laughing gas to help you relax or oral sedation in pill form for deeper relaxation. You choose what works best for your comfort level, and we handle the rest.

Our office also provides soft pillows, warm blankets, and headphones so you can listen to your favorite music during treatment. These little touches make a big difference in how you experience your visit. Many patients tell us they've never felt so at ease in a dental chair before.

Frequently Asked Questions About Gummy Smile Treatment

What is gummy smile treatment?
Gummy smile treatment is a cosmetic dentistry treatment that helps balance your teeth-to-gum ratio. If you have a “gummy” smile, we can use a special dental laser to gently remove excess gum tissue and make your smile more beautiful. Treatment is quick and painless; one appointment is usually all that’s needed.
Is gummy smile treatment painful?
We do everything we can to make this treatment (and our many other treatments) as pain-free as they can be. We offer local anesthetic along with three levels of dental sedation to block pain during your procedure. We’ll also advise you on what to do as you recover, so you have as little pain as possible.
How much does gummy smile treatment cost?
Gummy smile treatment can vary in price, depending on the level of complexity and extent of the treatment. We would need to examine your mouth first and possibly take a set of X-rays before we could give you a price. Once we have a treatment plan in mind, we can give you specific details on the cost of your individual treatment.
