hello doctor,
I have always disliked my gums, which are very noticeable and make my teeth look tiny. Not only that my lips are prone to being very high above my teeth, which makes me look even more gummy. I have heard of gum contouring but could you tell me what this actually entails. Would i be awake for the procedure and how long does it usually take for any swelling to subside. On top of that is their anything you can recommend for my lip problem as well?
Thank you so much for your time, it is greatly appreciated.
Hello,
Reshaping of the gum tissue with laser is a painless procedure and the healing time is very quick. It is something that is done with only local anesthetic. It would be your best option. hope this helps
