What Is a Gingivectomy?

A gingivectomy is a surgical procedure that removes overgrown or infected gum tissue. It’s often recommended for patients with periodontal disease, chronic gum infections, or cosmetic concerns such as a “gummy” smile. By eliminating diseased tissue and reshaping gumlines, gingivectomy improves both function and appearance—making it easier to maintain long-term oral health.

  • Healthier gums Removes diseased tissue and reduces infection risk.
  • Improved esthetics Reshapes uneven or overgrown gumlines for balance.
  • Easier hygiene Reduces deep gum pockets for better cleaning access.
  • Comfort & confidence Supports long-term stability and a more natural smile.

Technology That Enhances Healing

  • Soft tissue lasers Provide precise, gentle gum contouring with minimal bleeding and faster recovery.
  • Digital X-rays & intraoral scanners Deliver clear, accurate visuals for diagnosis and treatment planning.
  • T-Scan bite analysis Ensures a balanced bite after gum reshaping.
  • Ultrasonic scalers Clean deep pockets before and after treatment.
  • 3D imaging Assesses bone and tissue structure for advanced cases.

Why You Might Need a Gingivectomy

  • Periodontal disease Treats infected gums and reduces pocket depth.
  • Gum overgrowth Corrects tissue enlargement from medications or health conditions.
  • A gummy or uneven smile Refines gumlines for esthetic improvement.
  • Support for restorations Creates space for crowns or fillings when needed.

What to Expect During the Procedure

  • Comfort-focused anesthesia The area is numbed for a pain-free procedure.
  • Precise removal Excess gum tissue is reshaped using traditional techniques or lasers.
  • Natural contouring Gumlines are sculpted for a balanced, healthy appearance.
  • Quick recovery Most treatments take under an hour, with minimal downtime.

Who’s a Good Candidate?

  • Patients with gum disease Moderate to advanced cases that require pocket reduction.
  • Cosmetic concerns Uneven or “gummy” smiles that affect confidence.
  • Treatment support When extra gum tissue interferes with dental restorations.
