Raleigh Gum Lift

Contact Spectrum Family Dentistry today to learn more about our dental services.

The perfect smile involves more than beautiful teeth. If you have excess gum tissue covering the surface of your teeth, turn to Spectrum Family Dentistry for a minimally invasive gum lift procedure. We specialize in laser gumlifts to help patients in Raleigh, NC, improve their smiles.

Reason to Consider Gum Lifts

Gum tissue extending too far down on teeth creates an unsightly, stubby appearance. Even healthy teeth can look unflattering with this problem and affect self-esteem.

The extra gum tissue can also increase your risk of periodontal disease. Overgrown gums can look red and swollen and make people think that you have poor oral hygiene.

A gumlift is a cosmetic procedure that removes a small amount of gum tissue covering your teeth to give them more visibility and an attractive gum line contour.

Gum Contouring Process

The standard gum reshaping process uses a scalpel to gently cut away small bits of tissue to reveal more of a tooth and reshape the gum line. At Spectrum Family Dentistry, we use advanced laser technology to quickly contour the gum line without cutting soft tissues.

The process begins with a local anesthetic on your gum tissues to eliminate pain and maximize comfort. Next, Dr. Shi will trim the gum tissue with a special laser. You’ll leave your appointment with a lovely gum line and no bleeding.

You may experience minimal soreness for a couple of days following the procedure. Over-the-counter pain reliever can help with discomfort.

Great experience, friendly and professional staff, flexible scheduling and convenient. I drive down from Virginia because of their ability to get me taken care of and work with my schedule. The office offers the full compliment of dental and orthodontic services and works great with my insurance company to maximize my care. Highly recommended 🦷!

It was our first time there, Dr Shi was very patient and professional. We had a situation that required additional care asap, that was totally outside what was originally planned for that appt. Dr. Shi was very thoughtful and made that arrangement for us. So my Mom was able to walk out of the practice with all her unexpected dental issues taken care of, instead of just what was expected in the original appointment.
