Cosmetic gum surgery focuses on improving the aesthetic appearance of the gums and the smile. Procedures may include gum grafting, gum contouring, or crown lengthening to address issues like gum recession, excess gum tissue, or uneven gum lines.

Gum grafting is often used to treat gum recession, where tissue from another area of the mouth is transplanted to cover exposed tooth roots, preventing further recession and improving appearance. Gum contouring, on the other hand, is used to reshape and define the gum line for a more balanced and symmetrical look.

Cosmetic gum surgery is often performed in combination with other dental treatments, such as crowns, veneers, or implants, to enhance both the teeth and gums, providing a natural, harmonious smile.
