Laser Gum Recontouring: What Is It?
Laser gum recontouring is a treatment whereby Dr. Usheroff uses a special dental laser to sculpt the soft gum tissue. The most exciting technology in dentistry today, the soft tissue diode laser allows Dr. Usheroff to help patients with uneven gum lines achieve even, pleasing smiles. By skillfully applying laser energy, he balances the symmetry of teeth, gums and smile line in order to enhance the overall aesthetics of the mouth.
In addition to helping patients with uneven gum lines, Chicago laser gum recontouring specialist Dr. Usheroff can also correct the following cosmetic problems:
- Gummy Smile. Patients whose teeth appear disproportionately short due to excessive gum tissue benefit tremendously from laser gum recontouring that removes some of the excess soft tissue.
- Short Crowns. By applying precisely targeted laser energy, teeth structures can be lengthened by removing some of the gum tissue. This procedure creates a stronger foundation for the placement of crowns and also enhances the appearance of these restorations.
