Dental Information

You are in Cosmetic Procedures > Excessive or Uneven Gums

Featured topics include: Ridge Augmentation

There are 54 accredited dental schools in the U.S. and 10 in Canada.

Many people inherit the problem of excessive or uneven gums.

A cosmetic surgical procedure called a gum lift can be used to correct this problem.

Some abnormalities, as well as advanced gum disease that cannot be treated periodontically or non-surgically, may require application of soft tissue grafts. Such procedures can be used to cover an exposed root or correct uneven gum lines.
