At White Density Dental Clinic, we love seeing our patients smile with confidence—and sometimes, it only takes a small change to make a big difference.
Recently, we had the pleasure of treating Sharon, a lovely young lady who had always felt a little self-conscious about her smile. She described her concern as having a “gummy smile”—where too much gum shows when she smiles—and felt that her upper front teeth looked too short in comparison to the rest of her features.
After a thorough consultation and discussion about the treatment options, we agreed to begin with laser gingivectomy as a minimally invasive and effective way to enhance her smile.
What is Laser Gingivectomy?
Laser gingivectomy is a cosmetic dental procedure where excess gum tissue is carefully reshaped using a dental laser. Unlike traditional methods, laser treatment is more precise, causes minimal bleeding, and usually requires no stitches. Healing is also faster and more comfortable.
Sharon’s Smile Makeover
For Sharon, we focused on her four upper incisors—the front teeth most visible when she smiles. Using a gentle dental laser, we sculpted the gumline to reveal more of her natural tooth structure and create better symmetry.
The entire procedure was completed in a single visit and took less than an hour. Sharon was amazed at how immediate the results were—her teeth looked longer and more proportional, and her smile became brighter and more balanced. There is some brown discoloration along the gum margin, which will be gone after a while.
“I never thought such a small change could make me feel this much better. I finally love how my smile looks,” Sharon shared.
