Gingivectomy procedure
At the Center of Horizons, We take a careful approach to gingivectomy to ensure safe and satisfying results:
- Initial evaluation: We perform a thorough examination of the gums and teeth, with an X-ray if necessary, to determine the amount of tissue to be removed and the reason for the procedure.
- Anesthesia: We use local anesthesia to numb the area around the gums, ensuring the patient’s comfort during the procedure.
- Therapeutic Procedure: We use a fine scalpel or laser to carefully remove excess or affected gums, reshaping the gum line to achieve a symmetrical appearance.
- Closure or treatment of the area: If suturing is required, we use micro-absorbable sutures, and apply protective bandages if necessary.
- Follow-up and care: We provide care instructions such as avoiding spicy or hard foods, using an antibacterial mouthwash, and monitoring the area for two weeks.
Our goal is to achieve healthy gums and a harmonious smile with a quick recovery.
