Balance Your Smile With Crown Lengthening

Fortunately, gum contouring can correct an uneven gum line and deliver a more balanced and symmetrical appearance. Our soft tissue laser technology serves as an efficient, pain-free way to remove excess gum tissue.

At Levy and Vutera Family Dentistry in Baton Rouge, LA our dentists use this highly effective procedure to elongate the teeth and reshape the gum tissue.

Gum contouring is one of the most common cosmetic treatments in dentistry today. Very few corrective procedures can offer such dramatic results. For example, gum contouring:

• Can be used to remove excessive gum tissue
• Creates a more even, symmetrical, and balanced gum line
• Is permanent
• Is safe and effective
• Can enhance the beauty of other dental treatments, such as teeth whitening

Candidates for gum contouring in Baton Rouge, LA should be in good oral health. Conditions such as gum disease, tooth decay, and other dental problems will be treated prior to the laser dental procedure.

Patients should have a full understanding of the gum contouring procedure as well as a commitment to good oral hygiene habits at home and regular dental cleanings and exams once treatment is complete.

To make sure you qualify for gum contouring, our dentist will discuss your medical history with you at length during your initial consultation.

Since the effects of your gum contouring treatment are permanent, it is important to have clear and accurate expectations of the results. The Levy and Vutera Family Dentistry team in Baton Rouge, LA will thoroughly discuss your treatment with you before it is performed.
