WHAT IS RE-CONTOURING OF THE GUMLINE?
We use laser technology to reshape your gumline in one appointment.
Before treatment, patients say they feel self-conscious about their gumline. Our re-contouring treatment, which is also known as a “gum lift” can you help you to feel confident about your smile.
With gumline re-contouring from Wytes you can:
HOW DOES IT WORK?
We give you a local anaesthetic to make sure you don’t feel any pain.
Your dentist will reshape excess gum tissue to reveal more of your teeth.
We use a soft tissue laser to efficiently administer your treatment and to minimise recovery time.
In rare cases, we’ll need to remove some bone from the front of the tooth root to give you the optimal long-term results.

Is gumline re-contouring painful?
We give you a local anaesthetic so you shouldn’t feel any pain. The gums can feel sore after the procedure and we can prescribe paracetamol or ibuprofen. You can expect to be fully healed within days.
How will this treatment affect eating and drinking?
Be careful about what you eat in the days following treatment. Soft foods like eggs, pasta and soft fruit or vegetables are recommended. When your gums are healed, you can return to your normal diet.
Will the results last for a long time?
The treatment should last for life if you look after your teeth and gums. In a small number of cases, the gums grow back. Our dentists can often repeat treatment in such cases.
How should I look after my gums?
Brush very gently following treatment. Return to your daily routine when your gums heal – and visit the dentist for regular check-ups.
