A.
The technique used is dependent on whether underlying bone needs to be contoured as well. Generally, if it is only gum that needs to be contoured than a laser is my first choice. Laser contouring is quick and easy with little recovery time. If it is necessary to contour bone as well as gum than the dental surgical type of contouring is required for a predictable outcome.
