If you feel your smile looks “gummy” or your teeth appear too short or uneven, gum contouring — also known as gingival sculpting — can make a transformative difference. This precise cosmetic dental procedure reshapes the gum tissue to create a more balanced, symmetrical, and attractive smile.
Using minimally invasive laser technology, we gently remove or reshape excess gum tissue. Gum shaping is ideal for:
• Enhancing aesthetics by revealing more of your natural tooth structure
• Creating an even gumline for a harmonious smile
• Addressing overgrown gum tissue due to genetics or poor oral hygiene
• Treating deep gum pockets that may harbour plaque and bacteria
This treatment is quick, safe, and often completed in a single visit with minimal discomfort and recovery time.
At Bedfordview Dental Studio, we combine cosmetic expertise with gentle care to ensure natural-looking results that support both oral health and aesthetics.
Conveniently located in Bedfordview, our practice serves patients from Kensington, Eastgate, Morninghill, Bruma, Edenvale, Greenstone, Linksfield, Primrose, Germiston, and surrounding areas throughout Johannesburg East and the East Rand.
