If your gums rest too low or too high on your teeth and you are unhappy with your smile, you may be a candidate for gum contouring surgery. Also called gum reshaping or tissue sculpting, this cosmetic dental procedure can even out an uneven gum line and give you a smile you can be proud of.
What is the Gum Recontouring Process?
Gum recontouring may be performed using scalpels and sutures or soft tissue lasers. Scalpel and suture gum recontouring can be an effective option for patients with relatively good oral and overall health. Soft tissue laser therapy is much less invasive, and this conservative solution is a great option for those patients who have a history of struggle with oral health, especially gum disease. Those with compromised immune systems or chronic health conditions may also want to consider soft tissue laser therapy rather than scalpel and suture gum recontouring.
Benefits Of Gum Recontouring
The top benefits of gum recontouring include:
The results are long-lasting.
With few exceptions, the results of gum recontouring are permanent.
The results are natural-looking.
It is highly unlikely that onlookers will notice that you have had some cosmetic work done on your smile. They will simply notice how nice your teeth and gums look.
You may become a candidate for other procedures.
Excess gum tissue can interfere with your candidacy for other procedures, such as veneers and crowns. Gum recontouring can make it easier for you to take advantage of such treatments.
You may enjoy improved oral health.
Overgrown gums may easily trap food, increasing your risk of gum disease and dental decay. Getting rid of excess gum tissue can reduce such risks and spare you from the need for future treatment.

We have been going to Somerset Dental for the last few years and are so happy that we found them. The front desk staff is very kind and attentive they know who your family members are and what’s going on. My hygienist is very caring and makes me feel very comfortable. I don’t mind seeing my dental appointments come up anymore. Dr. Somerset is amazing and her and her team show you they care.

I had a wonderful experience at Somerset Dental. The staff is super friendly, efficient and accommodating. My hygienist Ally was beyond knowledgeable and very gentle. She was soft spoken and really put me at ease. Dr. Palluck was equally comforting and I trusted her expertise. I’ve already made an appointment to have my teeth whitened and have some bonding replaced. I really love their practice and I’m actually looking forward to having my smile updated before a family vacation. Scheduling was super easy by the way!

The receptionists during check in were very friendly and accommodating. The dental hygienist was very through and felt she took her time and really cleaned my teeth gently. Sufia the actual dentist was fabulous. Provided me with another through exam and didn’t rush. Gave me some options to keep my teeth in tip top shape. I’ll definitely be coming back.

Dr.Palluck took such great care of my little guy. She made him feel at ease throughout his filling treatment. He didn’t complain of any discomfort or pain after either. Super friendly and patient staff with kids. Highly recommend Somerset dental, overall great experience!
