The shape of the biting edge of the teeth and positioning of the gums around them can be very important to the symmetry of a smile.
If the bottom of the teeth are of an uneven length, or the gums hang too low over the teeth then a smile can appear less and perfect.
However, patients with biting edge and gum length problems can find the solution they need at Liverpool Dental Implant and Aesthetic with tooth and gum contouring.
What is tooth contouring?
Tooth contouring involves reshaping the bottom of the teeth to bring symmetry to the smile. Some of the teeth may be tooth long, or have a rough or slightly chipped biting edge, which are throwing off the balance of your smile.
This can be easily corrected, however, using tooth-reshaping techniques, which involve removing a small amount of tooth material to create a more in line smile.
What is gum contouring?
When the gums hang low over the tops of the teeth they can make a smile appear small, which may cause feelings of discomfort and embarrassment. Those who worry about their ‘gummy smiles’ needn’t worry about them much longer thought, as we offer gum contouring to help you review your beautiful teeth and smile.
Gum contouring involves cutting away the excess gum tissue that is covering your gums to reveal your complete smile. This will bring a greater sense of clarity and balance to the appearance of your smile and will show off your beautiful teeth.
