What is it?
Gum levels can be uneven and give a gummy smile. Gently contouring the gum tissue can make the smile look more even.
The procedure
Using a local anaesthetic, the gum is reshaped by an electocautery probe or a laser. This procedure takes up to 40 minutes to do.
Cost
From around £60 per tooth
What can go wrong?
Gums may look a bit bloody for a couple of days. If using a laser, the dentist needs to hold a special licence from the Healthcare Commission.
