Advanced Gum Treatment in Stafford

What is Advanced Gum Treatment?

Advanced Gum Treatment, also known as gum contouring, is a cosmetic procedure used to reshape the gum line. It’s typically performed when excess gum tissue covers part of the teeth, making them appear shorter and creating what’s often referred to as a “gummy smile.”

While not a medical concern, a gummy smile can affect your confidence and the overall balance of your smile. At Stella Dental Suite in Stafford, we use precise, minimally invasive techniques to remove excess tissue and reveal more of your natural tooth structure — helping you achieve a more proportionate and aesthetically pleasing smile.

Gum Treatment: Step-by-Step

Step 1

Consultation

Your advanced gum treatment starts with a comprehensive consultation. During this initial step, our periodontist will assess your gum health, allowing them to develop a personalised treatment plan, specific to your needs.

Step 2

Treatment

Our expert dental team is a specialised dental laser to precisely and gently remove excess gum tissue. The laser cauterises as it cuts which minimises bleeding and reduces the risk of infection. The laser allows for precise sculpting of the gums, revealing more of the teeth and creating a more balanced smile.

Step 3

Aftercare

After your treatment, the periodontist will provide guidance on maintaining good oral hygiene practices. They will schedule follow-up appointments to ensure the gums are healing correctly.

Gum Treatment FAQ’s

Dental Practice Stafford | Dentist | Stella Dental Suite

Answer

A gummy smile — where excess gum tissue covers part of the teeth — can have several causes. For many people, it’s simply genetic, with their natural gum-to-tooth ratio making the teeth appear shorter than they are.

In other cases, a gummy smile may result from:

  • Health conditions that affect gum growth or positioning

  • The use of certain medications, such as those for high blood pressure, which are known to stimulate excess gum tissue growth

Regardless of the cause, gum contouring at Stella Dental Suite in Stafford offers a safe, effective solution to restore balance and confidence to your smile.


Answer

At Stella Dental Suite in Stafford, our advanced gum treatment is a quick, comfortable procedure designed to enhance the natural beauty of your smile.

We begin by applying a local anaesthetic to gently numb the gums, ensuring you feel completely at ease. One of our experienced clinicians will then use precise laser technology to carefully and painlessly reshape your gum line, removing excess tissue and creating a more balanced tooth-to-gum ratio.

The entire laser gum contouring procedure typically takes just 20 to 30 minutes, with minimal downtime and immediate cosmetic improvement.


Answer

The local anaesthetic will ensure that you feel no pain during the procedure. Your mouth might feel sore for a few days after treatment, but this can be managed with ordinary, over- the-counter pain relief.


Answer

  • Shifts the ration of gum to teeth
  • Creates a more aesthetically appealing smile
  • Boosts your confidence.
  • Treatment is painless because local anaesthetic is administered

Answer

Your gums might feel sensitive for a few days, so it’s best to be gentle when brushing your teeth and flossing. You might also choose to gargle a warm, saltwater mouth wash.
