Beaverton Gum Re-contouring

If you dislike your smile because it is “gummy,” with teeth that look short because of your overhanging gum line, you may be a candidate for gum re-contouring, an effective, comfortable cosmetic dental procedure.

Performed by Drs. Montrose and Dotson, both Members of the Academy of Laser Dentistry, achieve gum re-contouring with the ease and comfort of a laser. Guided by these Smiles Northwest laser dentistry specialists, the laser quickly sculpts your gums, removing excess tissue and leaving behind a more symmetrical gum line.

Much less invasive than a scalpel, the laser’s intense light penetrates your gum tissues, re-contouring without an incision, and with little discomfort. Additionally, the laser’s unprecedented precision enables it to deliver powerful results without affecting tooth structure or bone underneath your gums.

Working to reveal your most beautiful smile, Drs. Montrose and Dotson will help you decide if gum re-contouring is the right dental service for you.

When performed by our dentists in Beaverton, OR gum re-contouring is a safe, comfortable procedure. Drs. Montrose and Dotson will begin the procedure by numbing your gums.
