1. What Is Laser Gingivectomy?

It’s a procedure to remove and reshape excessive gum tissue using a soft-tissue laser to improve smile aesthetics and oral health.

2. What Makes Laser Gingivectomy Different?

Laser use minimizes bleeding, eliminates the need for stitches, shortens healing time, and offers more precision compared to traditional methods.

3. When Is Laser Gum Contouring Recommended?

It is used for treating gummy smiles, gum overgrowth, uncovering decay or fractures below the gumline, and as part of pre-prosthetic procedures.

4. How Is the Procedure Performed?

After applying local anesthesia, the laser gently removes the excess gum tissue. The procedure typically takes 15–30 minutes and often requires only one visit.

5. What Should You Expect After Laser Gingivectomy?

Avoid hot foods and drinks for 24 hours, maintain gentle oral hygiene, and follow your dentist’s post-op instructions regarding mouth rinses or ointments.
