Treatment options for an uneven gum line
A crooked gum line often affects the appearance of our teeth which may affect self-confidence. Below are some treatment options to correct this medical condition.
Key takeaway:
– A gum contouring procedure works best if you were born with uneven gums. However, before the procedure, other underlying problems such as gum disease will need to be addressed.
– Sometimes there is too much gum tissue covering your teeth. In this case, gum contouring can be done by the use of a laser to reshape the gum tissue to the desired appearance.
– Gum recession is the leading cause of uneven gum lines and can be caused by gum disease, aggressive brushing and smoking. A gum graft can help, but gum disease must be treated first.
If the cause of your uneven gumline is aggressive brushing, using a softer toothbrush will stop further damage.
