Gum contouring with respect for anatomy
An uneven gum line or excessive gum visibility can have different causes. Gingivoplasty changes the soft-tissue contour but is not a universal solution for every gummy smile. Planning at MasterDent considers bone level, tissues and crown proportions.
Contouring, clinical crown lengthening and recession coverage are different procedures. They should not be combined into a single promise. The dentist explains the required method, potential sensitivity, recovery and coordination with veneers or other restorations.

Frequently asked questions
Can gum contouring correct every gummy smile?
No. The cause may relate to gums, teeth, the lip or skeletal proportions. The method is selected after diagnosis.
Is this the same as covering recession?
No. Changing the gum contour and covering an exposed root have different aims and techniques.
Can contouring be performed when gums are inflamed?
The dentist first assesses and, if necessary, stabilizes inflammation before planning aesthetic treatment.
Is anesthesia needed?
The need and local anesthesia method depend on treatment scope and medical history.
Can this be combined with veneers?
When indicated, yes. Timing and sequence depend on the tissues, and restorations are planned around healing.
Will the result be perfectly symmetrical?
Anatomy limits correction. Expectations are discussed before treatment without guaranteeing identical contours.
When is the final result assessed?
After the tissues stabilize at a time determined by the dentist, rather than immediately after the procedure.
What does the price per tooth mean?
It covers one treatment area in the price list. The total number of areas and additional stages are agreed individually.
