What is Gum Contouring?
Gum contouring, also called gum reshaping or tissue sculpting, enhances your smile by reshaping the gum line. Here’s what you should know: It corrects a “gummy smile” or an uneven gum line, creating a more balanced look. The procedure serves both cosmetic and functional purposes. It involves either removing excess gum tissue or restoring receded gums. Advanced laser technology ensures precision and a comfortable experience. Results are typically permanent, offering a dramatic improvement in smile aesthetics.

Frequently Asked Questions About Gum Contouring
Does Gum Recontouring Hurt?
Gum recontouring is a minimally invasive procedure designed to enhance the shape and contour of your gums. While the experience is generally comfortable, it’s normal to have some mild to moderate post-operative discomfort. To ensure a pain-free procedure, our Camarillo dentist will use a local anesthetic to numb the area before making any adjustments.
Will Insurance Pay for Gum Contouring?
Insurance coverage for gum recontouring—also known as gummy smile treatment or crown lengthening—varies depending on the reason for the procedure and your insurance provider. If the treatment is considered medically necessary, such as correcting a bite issue or preventing periodontal disease, many insurance plans offer partial coverage. At Smile Spa Camarillo Dentistry, we will check with your insurance provider before scheduling your procedure to help you understand your coverage options. Contact us today to learn more!
Will my gums grow back after contouring?
For most patients, gum contouring delivers permanent results, provided that good oral hygiene is maintained. Keeping up with regular dental visits and a proper oral care routine will help ensure that your beautifully reshaped gum line stays healthy and attractive for years to come.
