Gum Tissue Recontouring - Smile Line FrameReshaping Cosmetic Gum LinesGum tissue reshaping has become an popular procedure for achieving the best cosmetic result for patients who are considering multiple placements (or replacements) of premium porcelain crown products, bridgework and especially veneer laminates.
Gingiva treatments were once considered the exclusive domain of Periodontists, specialists in the treatment of supportive and connective tissues. The recent advent of smile makeovers (popularized by television programs) created a new focus on gum tissue surgery.Specialized dental lasers that are now designed for both hard and soft tissues were proven to be the technology of choice for creating near text-book examples of what gingival arches are supposed to look like, in relation to the size of a patient's tooth structures. Tissue Laser versus Piezoelectric TechnologyMany cosmetic dentists, like Dr. Marinic, have made investments in Laser Dentistry that provides a degree of accuracy that, in many cases, surpasses outdated manual procedures. Considered to be a non invasive procedure, lasing of gingival tissues produces little (if any) discomfort and delivers a self cauterizing tissue surgery that has become the hallmark of laser dentistry (see adjacent photo).
Within just a few days after treatment, the lased gum tissue heals nicely, producing papilla tissue effects that are commonly associated with attractive gum lines that arch each tooth symmetrically.Dr. Marinic has been using a Nd-YAG Soft Tissue Laser for nearly 15 years for conventional tissue therapies and especially for cosmetic recontouring (gum lifts). As with the mathematical relationships that exist with normal tooth sizing, Dr. Marinic applies similar principles (Rules of Golden Proportion) to create an aesthetic framing of gum tissue that literally creates the "finishing touch" to practically any degree of cosmetic or full mouth reconstructive makeovers. Non laser based (Peizoelectric technology) gingival tissue trimming is also available to assure our patients they have their choice of treatment methods for creating attractive gum tissue framing for reconstructive makeovers. Common Laser Dentistry ProceduresCrown Lengthening (exposing more tooth structure) has also become near effortless with modern lasers and offers additional options to preserve healthy tooth structures. Gingiva Hyperplasia (excessive growth of gum tissue in response to medications or certain orthodontic treatments) can be routinely treated to create the correct balance between tooth and gum tissue.Questions about Lasers or Gum Lifts?Call us at 847-475-8700 or use our convenient on-line Consultation Request form to schedule an evaluation.
