Cosmetic Gum Surgery

A brand new procedure called Bi-Polar Electrosurgery, which utilizes a radio surgery unit, is emerging as the future trend in gum contouring. The technology is quite popular with cardiologists and neurosurgeons, and has fairly recently come into the dentistry arena. With electrosurgery, the cutting is carried out with a very low current to make sure that there is no bleeding, virtually no discomfort, and no protective dressing necessary to cover the region.

And it requires virtually no time at all – our dentists can contour the gum line in approximately one hour. As soon as the dentist is done contouring the gum line, the result is complete. The gums appear done after the procedure.
