Gum contouring, also called gum reshaping, is a cosmetic dental procedure that gently sculpts your gum line to create a more balanced, even smile. If you have a “gummy smile” or uneven gum edges that make your teeth appear short or misshapen, gum contouring can help reveal your natural beauty and improve overall symmetry. At DC Dental Spa in Washington, DC, our experienced cosmetic dentists use advanced, precise techniques to reshape gums comfortably and safely, giving you a confident smile that looks both natural and refined. Conveniently located near Foggy Bottom, Dupont Circle, and West End, we make achieving your best smile easy and comfortable.

How Gum Contouring Works

The Gum Contouring Procedure

The procedure is simple, gentle, and typically completed in one visit.

 

Step 1: Consultation and Smile Design

We start by discussing your goals and using digital imaging to map your ideal gum line. You’ll see a preview of your new smile before treatment begins.

 

Step 2: Comfortable Gum Sculpting

Using advanced laser or micro-sculpting tools, your dentist reshapes the gums with remarkable precision. The process minimizes bleeding and ensures a smooth, even contour.

 

Step 3: Soothing and Recovery

Gum contouring involves little to no downtime. Most patients return to normal activities within a day or two, with only minor sensitivity that fades quickly.
