Restore Your Smile by Building a Healthy Periodontal Foundation
A healthy periodontal foundation is essential not just for oral health but also for a confident, attractive smile. Dr. Britten is dedicated to helping patients achieve both by addressing gum issues like recession and excessive gum display, commonly known as a “gummy smile.” If you’ve noticed these conditions, you’re not alone—and there are effective, professional solutions available.
Understanding Gum Recession and Gummy Smiles
Gum recession occurs when the gum tissue pulls back from the teeth, exposing roots and leading to sensitivity and aesthetic concerns. A gummy smile, on the other hand, involves excessive gum visibility when smiling, which can make teeth appear shorter than they are.
Fortunately, both conditions are treatable. Dr. Britten offers advanced periodontal procedures to either replace lost gum tissue or contour the existing gums for a more balanced appearance.
Advanced Treatments for Lasting Results
Using minimally invasive techniques, Dr. Britten restores the natural look of your gums and teeth. Gum grafting replaces tissue lost to periodontal disease, while gum contouring reshapes the gum line to enhance symmetry. These treatments not only improve the appearance of your smile but also support long-term oral health.
Confidence Begins with Healthy Gums
By establishing a healthy periodontal foundation, you pave the way for improved dental aesthetics and greater self-confidence. Dr. Britten’s patient-centered approach ensures that each treatment is tailored to your unique needs, combining function and beauty in every smile.
