Sometimes a smile looks beautiful, but gums that are irregularly shaped or cover too many teeth can disrupt its harmony. Gingivoplasty is a procedure that corrects these irregularities, shaping the gums to achieve better aesthetics and functionality.
This procedure is not only aesthetic in nature - properly shaped gums make it easier to maintain oral hygiene, reducing the risk of inflammation such as gingivitis or periodontitis.
At Dental Studio Babić, gingivoplasty is performed with the help of the Fotona laser, which makes the procedure precise, gentle and safe. The laser allows for the removal and shaping of excess tissue without the need for a scalpel and stitches. Its precision minimizes damage to the surrounding tissue, while at the same time disinfecting the treated area, reducing bleeding and accelerating the healing process.
Combination with laser curettage
In patients who, in addition to aesthetic gum irregularities, also have signs of periodontitis, the Fotona laser is also used for curettage of periodontal pockets. The laser thoroughly removes bacteria and inflamed tissue, reducing inflammation and stimulating the regeneration of gums and bone. If necessary, mechanical curettage is also performed to remove stubborn plaque and tartar. This combination provides a comprehensive therapy that restores gum health.
Patients after gingivoplasty and laser curettage notice:
- Properly shaped gums that emphasize the beauty of the teeth,
- Reduced inflammation and bleeding,
- Easier hygiene maintenance due to more accessible tooth surfaces,
- Quick and painless recovery without stitches and complications.
