Oral vestibuloplasty is a surgical procedure designed to reshape the oral vestibule—the area between the teeth and gums—typically to improve denture fit or address oral tissue damage.

The procedure involves removing excess tissue or reshaping the soft tissue around the gums to create a more stable and functional foundation for dentures. Vestibuloplasty may also be performed to treat conditions such as gum disease or to enhance the appearance of the smile.

Vestibuloplasty is commonly used in cases where the natural jawbone or gum tissue has been resorbed, creating inadequate support for dentures. The procedure can also improve speech and chewing function by restoring better muscle tone and tissue support.

This procedure is particularly beneficial for patients with edentulous (toothless) areas who need enhanced retention for their dentures and better oral function.
