Gum Contouring


Gum contouring can make your smile look healthier and more attractive by framing and complementing your teeth. Much like a quality picture frame enhances a painting.
Could this be the cosmetic improvement to your smile that you are looking for? Dr. Perez uses this dental solution to help teeth look longer and take away what we may think of as a “gummy smile”. With this procedure, your true smile will be revealed as your teeth are no longer overshadowed by excessive gum tissue.
Some may have uneven gums that are not scalloped up and down properly. Berkeley dentist, Dr. Perez can quickly remedy this with minor gum sculpting and adjusting. Gum contouring may also play a role in enhancing your smile design and porcelain veneers.
Dr. Perez and his dental team use state-of-the-art equipment to artistically re-define or straighten crooked gums. In only a few minutes you can have a finely sculpted gumline!
The technology our dentist chooses to use is conservative and has very little discomfort afterward. Local anesthetic is all that's required.
Why wait any longer? Our highly skilled dentist can create a healthy and attractive gumline quickly and easily!
One of the latest advances in technology is using Electrosurge for gum contouring. The Electrosurge is a small probe about the thickness of a single hair. Dr. Perez uses this probe, following along the gumline and reshaping minute areas of the gum for a clean and beautiful smile. In addition to these results, using the Electrosurge begins the healing process right away and is a secure and safe treatment option.
The quality of dentistry practiced by Dr. Perez is the highest level, adhering to the AACD standard for optimum gum health and appearance. He and his team work closely to create a perfectly symmetrical smile that you will be proud of.
