Gum Reshaping
Gum Sculpting & Contouring London
Uneven gums or too much gum showing when speaking or smiling (gummy smile) can affect your smile and look unsightly. This can affect your confidence and be embarrassing at times. If this situation affects you there are options available to you that can reduce or eliminate this problem.
We use a laser to reshape the gums to reduce the number of gums visible on either a single tooth/ area or on multiple teeth/ areas. This is especially useful when trying to create a symmetrical outline of the gum.
The treatment is comfortable with instant healing and can the procedure can take from a few seconds to a few minutes depending on the number of areas that need treatment
This procedure can either be used in adjunct to teeth whitening or braces or as part of a smile makeover.

Achieving a beautiful smile has never been easier. We aim to provide the best smile to you. Many people have a gummy smile or uneven gum levels.
With our advanced laser technique, your gum can be reshaped, which will improve the overall appearance of the teeth and hence the smile.
If your gum line is very uneven or if you show too much gum when you smile then gum reshaping (also known as gum contouring or gum lift) could be for you.
With gum reshaping your smile will look more balanced and symmetrical. The gum lift procedure can be carried out quickly and painlessly with an advanced special laser.
Gum reshaping produces excellent results on its own or is very often used with other treatments such as porcelain veneers or our very popular smile makeover.
There are a few scientific parameters when reshaping the gums. It is desired that:
The height of the gum for the central incisor and the canine be the same height.
The height of the gum for the lateral incisor be 0.5mm shorter than the central incisor.

Cosmetic Bonding
Another option to target aesthetic dental issues is cosmetic bonding. This is a simple, effective and pain-free treatment to improve your smile.
Cosmetic bonding is appropriate for those who have chipped or worn teeth - and will leave your smile looking charming, attractive and appealing.
Your dentist will use bonding material known as dental composite to reshape individual teeth, close gaps between the teeth and build up worn edges.
I can't thank Gurs, David, Katie and all the staff at perfect smile enough. It was a massive decision for me to have all the treatment I needed to include bone grafting, implants, veneers, root canal, crown replacement, inlays and whitening but they have all been fantastic. I wasn't the easiest patient but they took the time to make me fell at ease and were at the end of the phone anytime I had any concerns. The transformation is incredible and I can finally smile with confidence and no longer worry about being in company. Thank you
Over priced, pushing for more than required & basically out for every penny that can get from a patient !
