Do your teeth appear to be “small” because your gums extend lower on the teeth than you’d like? Do you consider yourself to have a “gummy smile,” and tend to hide it or feel embarrassed when you see photos of your teeth? This is a common occurrence for folks in Granbury, and resolving this issue may be easier than you think!

What is Cosmetic Gum Contouring?

Gum contouring is a straightforward process that can give you a new smile in as little as one visit to your Granbury Dentist. Dr. Heizer utilizes an in-office laser to simply re-shape the gums. This soft tissue laser is precise and causes very little pain – often it requires little to no anesthetic. As the laser is used, it cauterizes the gum tissue, which means there is little bleeding and minimal recovery time. Whether you need a large amount of gum tissue removed, or just a little, this treatment can provide great results.
