However, in some cases, irregularities in the level of the gums, overgrowth (gummy smile) or asymmetries may occur. Such problems, no matter how perfect the teeth are, can negatively affect the overall aesthetics of the smile and cause the person to hesitate to smile. Modern aesthetic dentistry is designed to correct these irregularities and create a flawless <\/span><b>Hollywood Smile<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to create <\/span><b>Gingivectomy<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><b>Gingivoplasty<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> offers special gum shaping (Pink Aesthetics) procedures.

When smiling, little or no gums are considered aesthetic. A gum level proportional to the length and width of the teeth adds a natural balance and aesthetic appeal to the smile.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Causes of Irregularities in Gingival Level (Genetics, Drug Use, etc.):<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Irregularities at the gum level can be caused by many different factors:<\/span><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><b>Genetic Predisposition:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Some people may be born with more gums or have them positioned lower on the teeth.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><b>Gummy Smile (Gummy Smile):<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Conditions such as a long upper jawbone, an overly mobile upper lip or overgrowth of the gums cause the gums to be much more visible than the teeth when laughing.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><b>Asymmetric Gum Level:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> When the gums rest at different levels on different teeth, it creates a disproportion and asymmetry in the smile.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><b>Drug Use:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Some medicines (e.g. blood pressure medicines, epilepsy medicines) can cause enlarged gums.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><b>Inflammation<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Gingivitis (gingivitis, periodontitis) can cause the gums to swell and appear red.<\/span><\/li><\/ul><\/li><li><b>Negative Effects on Smile Aesthetics (Gummy Smile, Asymmetry):<\/b><span> Irregularities at the gum level directly affect a person's smile. A gummy smile can cause a person to shy away from smiling or get into the habit of covering their mouth with their hands. Asymmetrical gums, on the other hand, disrupt the overall harmony of the smile by making the teeth look different in size or crooked. These conditions can reduce a person's self-confidence.<\/span><\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-944e1a6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"944e1a6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;ekit_we_effect_on&quot;:&quot;none&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">What is Gingivectomy and How is it Performed?<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-845f65e elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"845f65e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;ekit_we_effect_on&quot;:&quot;none&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gingivectomy is the process of removing excess gums.<\/span><\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Purpose and Definition of Gingivectomy:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Gingivectomy is the surgical removal of gum tissue that is abnormally protruding above the teeth or that does not look aesthetically pleasing. Its main purpose is to make the teeth look longer, proportionate and aesthetic, to eliminate the \"gummy smile\" problem and to smooth the gum levels.

Laser technology cuts the gums while simultaneously stopping bleeding, which makes the procedure more comfortable and bloodless. Thanks to the antiseptic effect of the laser, the risk of infection is reduced and the healing process is much faster. It usually does not require stitches and the patient can return to their daily life immediately.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Traditional Surgical Gingivectomy:<\/b><span> Traditional gingivectomy is the removal of excess gum tissue using a scalpel or other surgical instruments. It is usually preferred in larger areas or in more complicated cases where a laser procedure is not suitable. Stitches may be needed after this procedure and the recovery time may be slightly longer than with the laser.<\/span><\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9cbfd1d elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"9cbfd1d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;ekit_we_effect_on&quot;:&quot;none&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/medlook.com.tr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/dis2.webp\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-17651\" alt=\"Gum Level Irregularities: Gingivectomy and Gingivoplasty\" srcset=\"https:\/\/medlook.com.tr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/dis2.webp 1000w, https:\/\/medlook.com.tr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/dis2-300x150.webp 300w, https:\/\/medlook.com.tr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/dis2-768x384.webp 768w, https:\/\/medlook.com.tr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/dis2-18x9.webp 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" loading=\"eager\" title=\"\">\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-64784ce elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"64784ce\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;ekit_we_effect_on&quot;:&quot;none&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">What is Gingivoplasty and How is it Performed?<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7fdf573 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"7fdf573\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;ekit_we_effect_on&quot;:&quot;none&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gingivoplasty is the process of shaping and contouring the gums.<\/span><\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Purpose and Definition of Gingivoplasty:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Gingivoplasty is a procedure performed to give the gums a more aesthetically pleasing shape and contour. It is performed to give the remaining gum tissue a natural and symmetrical curve after excess gum has been removed by gingivectomy. The aim is to ensure that the gums surround each tooth in an aesthetic way.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Gum Contouring Process:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Gingivoplasty can also be performed using laser or surgical instruments. The transition line of the gums to the teeth is reshaped to match the cheeks and lips. This procedure makes the teeth appear longer and more proportionate and adds a natural harmony to the smile.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>The Difference Between Gingivectomy and Gingivoplasty:<\/b><span> Gingivectomy focuses on reducing the amount of gums (removing excess tissue); Gingivoplasty focuses on aesthetically adjusting the shape and contour of the remaining gum.
