Gingivectomy

Gingivectomy is a surgical procedure that involves the removal of diseased gum tissue to make room for healthy teeth and gums. It can be performed for both medical and cosmetic reasons. Our dentist will guide patients about pre-procedure instructions and eating or drinking restrictions. Usually, this surgery is painless and can be done within 45 minutes. However, the gums will bleed and swell for a few days after treatment. Take over-the-counter pain medication such as acetaminophen (Tylenol) or ibuprofen (Advil).

You may be a candidate for gingivectomy if you have bleeding gums or loose teeth. Several factors can cause gingivitis, including hormonal changes, aging, aggressive tooth brushing, or genetics. When gingivitis isn’t treated, it can lead to the formation of calculus, a hardened form of plaque. Having this treatment can help you avoid the progression of gum disease and reduce your risk for future dental problems. Also known as gingival sculpting or gum contouring, this cosmetic procedure is used to change the appearance of your smile by trimming and reshaping your gumline.

Gingivoplasty

Gingivoplasty is a cosmetic procedure where the gum tissue is reshaped to correct deformities. It is also known as gingival sculpting and gum contouring. A dentist can do gingivoplasty for a variety of reasons. They can improve your smile and make you look more attractive. They can also help prevent or treat gum disease by reducing the amount of plaque and food that collects around the teeth.

The gum tissue is numb before the treatment begins and a laser is used to reduce bleeding during the process. The laser vaporizes the thin layer of melanocytes in the gum tissue, leaving it with a lighter pink uniform colour. The process is relatively pain-free compared to standard surgery and recovery time is quicker.

Gums that bleed when you brush or floss are a sign of gum disease (gingivitis). If left untreated, this condition can lead to the loss of teeth and severe periodontitis. A gingivectomy removes the irritated gum tissue before the damage can worsen.

Gum Recession

Gum recession occurs when the gum tissue that surrounds your teeth wears away, exposing more of your tooth or its root. This can lead to more serious problems, such as periodontitis and gingivitis.

Changing your oral habits can prevent gum recession, including quitting smoking or using smokeless tobacco and eating a balanced diet. In some cases, a dental cleaning or antibiotics can be all that’s needed to treat minor gum recession.

For advanced cases, your dentist may recommend a surgical treatment to restore lost tissue and bone. During this procedure, called open flap scaling and root planing, your dentist folds back the gum tissue and removes bacteria from the pockets that have formed. They will also smooth the surface of your teeth roots, which can help prevent future bacteria buildup. Gum grafting is another surgical option that uses tissue from elsewhere in your mouth to cover and protect exposed tooth roots. This technique is sometimes referred to as soft tissue grafting or pinhole surgery.

Gum Lightening

Gum Lightening is a minimally-invasive laser treatment for dark gum patches and spots. These areas are usually made up of extra melanin, which is a natural pigment that affects your eyes, hair, and skin. Unlike teeth discoloration, dark gums are typically not a sign of disease or poor hygiene, and the excess melanin can be safely removed with our Light Walker Laser in a quick and painless procedure.Read on BellaViso.

The laser depigmentation procedure is often confused with laser teeth whitening, but the two treatments are different. While gum lightening uses a laser to reduce hyperpigmentation, teeth whitening involves bleaching the enamel with a peroxide-based solution. Regardless of the procedure you choose, we advise that you maintain healthy habits after your visit to prevent tooth decay and gum disease. You may experience gum sensitivity or slight discomfort after your procedure, but this should resolve quickly. Schedule an appointment for gum depigmentation today to improve your smile’s aesthetics.
