Answers to Frequently Asked Questions about Gum Contouring

Gum contouring, also called gum reshaping, is usually considered a cosmetic dental procedure that can correct an uneven gum line. In the oral health world, gum contouring surgery is also called gingivectomy. An uneven gum line means that your gums are too high or too low on your teeth and you may have a “gummy smile”1 that shows all of your teeth. It’s also a treatment option for someone who has had gum recession and too little gum, exposing the roots of their teeth. Gum contouring is permanent since gum tissue will not regrow.
