What is Gum Contouring?

Gum contouring is a cosmetic dental procedure that reshapes the gum line to improve the appearance of your smile. It may involve removing or adjusting excess gum tissue or refining uneven areas.

This treatment can help with:

  • Gummy smiles (excess gum display)

  • Uneven gum lines or asymmetry

  • Teeth that appear short or disproportionate

  • Improving overall smile balance and harmony

Gingivectomy & Gum Adjustment

A gingivectomy is a precise procedure used to remove excess gum tissue and reshape the gum line. This can dramatically improve how your teeth appear without altering the teeth themselves.

At Brisbane Smile Boutique, gum adjustment is carefully planned to:

  • Enhance symmetry across the smile

  • Improve alignment between teeth and gums

  • Create more balanced proportions

  • Maintain healthy gum structure

Crown Lengthening & Gum Lift

Crown Lengthening

Crown lengthening involves reshaping the gum (and sometimes underlying bone) to expose more of the natural tooth. This can improve both aesthetics and function.

Gum Lift

A gum lift is a cosmetic refinement of the gum line to create a more even and attractive smile. It is often used to correct a gummy smile or uneven gum heights.

These dental treatments at Brisbane Smile Boutique are designed to enhance your natural features while maintaining a harmonious, proportionate appearance.

Treating Gummy Smile & Gum Display

Excessive gum display, often called a gummy smile, can affect how balanced your smile appears. Gum contouring offers a conservative and effective way to reduce gum visibility and improve overall aesthetics.

By carefully adjusting the gum line, at Brisbane Smile Boutique we can:

  • Reduce excess gum display

  • Create a more even smile line

  • Improve tooth visibility and proportions

  • Enhance confidence when smiling

Digital Smile Design Treatments at Brisbane Smile Boutique

Digital Smile Design can enhance a wide range of cosmetic and functional treatments:

Using DSD, we design veneers or composite bonding precisely for each tooth to improve shape, symmetry, and colour.

  • Edge bonding: minimally restores chipped or uneven edges

  • Gap closure: subtle improvement without invasive preparation

  • No prep veneers: when suitable, veneers can be placed without removing natural tooth structure

Brisbane Smile Boutique offers Digital Smile Design (DSD) and Full Mouth Rehabilitation (FMR) to help you achieve a natural, balanced, and confident smile. Using advanced imaging, 3D scanning, and personalised planning, DSD allows you to visualise your ideal smile before treatment, while FMR restores function and aesthetics across all teeth with crowns, veneers, implants, and restorative care. Together, these approaches deliver precise, lasting, and harmonious results tailored to your face and lifestyle.
