Gum Contouring

Some people have teeth that look too short in relationship to their gums, which creates a "gummy smile." A procedure called gum contouring enables Dr. Mosby to remove excess gum tissue and expose a bigger, bolder smile. In fact, Dr. Mosby can sculpt your gum line to achieve just the right proportion between gum tissue and tooth surface.

If gums are uneven around a tooth, gum contouring can smooth and balance the tooth's appearance. In some cases, genetics can play a role, causing gum tissue to cover too much of the tooth's structure. Dr. Mosby will raise your gums to produce an even, aesthetically pleasing gum line.

Put your smile in Dr. Mosby's capable hands. If you have questions about gum contouring or would like to make an appointment, call our office. Conveniently located in Kingwood, we serve Spring, Crosby, Atascocita, and the greater Houston area.
