Gum contouring is a cosmetic treatment used to subtly enhance someone's smile by reshaping the gum tissue. Many people choose laser gum contouring if they have a 'gummy smile'—where the gum extends past the normal point, making teeth appear smaller or uneven.
Your dentist uses a very fine laser to gently 'trim' excess gum tissue to reveal more of your natural tooth and create a balanced, aesthetically pleasing gum line. Unlike other treatments, laser gum contouring is highly effective and, in the vast majority of cases, does not need to be repeated as the gum is very unlikely to grow back.

Your concerns, answered clearly and honestly.
Gum contouring is a cosmetic dental procedure that reshapes excessive or uneven gum tissue to create a more balanced, attractive smile.
You may be a candidate if you have an uneven gum line, or excess gum covering the teeth. A dental assessment ensures the procedure is right for you.
Most patients experience minimal discomfort. Local anaesthetic is used to numb the area, and many find recovery quick and comfortable.
Gum contouring typically takes 30–60 minutes per area, depending on the extent of reshaping needed.
