    We Use Lasers for Painless Gummy Smile Treatment

    One of the best things about modern dental care is that it gives you control over your smile. If you want to make a change, you can. To address your issues with gum tissue, we have two ways we can help you.

    The first option is using advanced technology to improve your smile. With a dental laser, we have an efficient method of removing excess periodontal tissue. The laser also seals the remaining tissue. As a result, you should not need sutures after this procedure. The laser also minimizes the time needed to recover from your treatment.

    The second option takes a different approach. Instead of taking away gum tissue, we can reposition teeth so they are more visible. In some instances, we may use both options for a more noticeable result.

    Our gummy smile treatments can be effective on their own. You also can make them part of a smile makeover by combining them with other services, such as teeth whitening or tooth bonding.

    Create the Smile You Want

    Gummy smiles affect millions of people. There are multiple reasons you may have this kind of smile. Some people have more gum tissue than others. The size and shape of your teeth can affect how visible they are. The position of your upper lip and your lower jaw can play a role as well.

    Regardless of the reason, if you are interested in gum reshaping in Colorado Springs, CO, we welcome you to schedule a consultation at Schope Dental. Call 719-675-5238 or now.

    Common Questions From Our Patients

    If too much of your gums show when you smile, you have what’s known as a gummy smile. Gum reshaping removes excess gum tissue to even out your teeth-to-gum ratio. Treatment can usually be completed in just one visit using a special, low-power dental laser. You can leave our office with your new smile and new confidence to go along with it.

    We do everything we can to make this treatment (and our many other treatments) as pain-free as it can be. We offer local and topical anesthetic along with three levels of dental sedation to block pain during your procedure. We’ll also advise you on what to do as you recover so you have as little pain as possible.

    The cost of gum reshaping varies, depending on the amount of tissue being removed. It obviously costs less to do a single tooth than all the teeth in the front of your smile. Since gum reshaping is typically considered a strictly cosmetic procedure, it won’t be covered by insurance. We offer payment options such as CareCredit financing.
