Gum Contouring: Reshape Your Smile

Sometimes the teeth are beautiful but the gumline steals the show. Gum contouring gently reshapes excess or uneven gum tissue to reveal a balanced, proportionate smile.

When Contouring Helps

A "gummy" smile, uneven gumline, or teeth that appear short are ideal candidates. By adjusting the gum tissue, we frame your teeth more attractively and create harmony across your smile.

A Comfortable Procedure

Modern gum contouring is precise and comfortable, often completed in a single visit with minimal downtime. Healing is typically quick and the results are immediate.

Part of a Bigger Picture

Gum contouring frequently complements veneers or whitening as part of a full smile makeover. Altamonte Springs patients are often amazed how much difference a refined gumline makes.

Cosmetic & Restorative Dentistry at Highline Dental

From porcelain veneers and professional whitening to full smile makeovers, our cosmetic and restorative treatments blend artistry with the finest materials for natural, radiant results.
