Gingivectomy

The health and appearance of the gums surrounding your teeth are just as important as your teeth for you to feel comfortable while smiling. Sometimes stubborn infections or structural growths in the gums can make your teeth look much shorter than they are or threaten your health. Gingivectomy is the extremely gentle and painless removal of diseased or overgrown gum tissue. In this way, the harmful spaces where bacteria hide and which cannot be reached with a brush are completely cleaned, eliminating the risk of tooth loss.

This treatment generally provides flawless integrity together with the "Gingivoplasty" procedure. Gingivoplasty is the art of giving your gums that flawless, natural, and symmetrical shape. In other words, while your gums regain their health with gingivectomy, that pink-white aesthetic balance in your smile is achieved with gingivoplasty. Supported by modern laser technologies, these procedures heal your gums while offering you an almost "Hollywood" symmetry.

Who is it Suitable For?

This treatment is a wonderful aesthetic solution for our patients whose gums are much more visible than normal when smiling (gummy smile) and whose teeth therefore look shorter or smaller than they are. If you think your gums are uneven and asymmetrical when you look in the mirror, you can achieve that balanced smile of your dreams with a slight touch.

Moreover, beyond aesthetic concerns; this surgical intervention is a necessity for our patients who have deep spaces (pockets) between their gums and teeth due to gum disease, and who frequently experience gum bleeding, swelling, and sensitivity problems. If growths or deformations have occurred in your gums due to infections, you can secure your oral health with this reliable and permanent method without the fear of losing your teeth.

Step-by-Step Treatment Process

As Atlantic Dental Turkey, we never leave you alone at any stage while rebuilding your gum health and smile aesthetics, and we transform the process into a comfortable experience for you.

Online Consultation

Your process begins when you contact us while in the warmth of your home. Through the intraoral photos and X-rays you take and send, our specialist doctors evaluate the condition of your gums and your aesthetic needs in detail.

Treatment Planning

As a result of the evaluation, we determine how much intervention (Gingivectomy or Gingivoplasty) needs to be done on your gums. At this stage, we submit a transparent Turkey gingivectomy cost report that protects your budget for your approval. Thus, every step of your treatment becomes clear from the beginning.

Arrival in Turkey

When you approve our treatment plan, your exciting health journey to Istanbul begins. The moment your plane lands, our friendly team welcomes you at the airport. With our dedicated VIP vehicle specially allocated for you, we transport you directly to your elite hotel so you can leave your stress behind.

Clinical Process

On your first day at our clinic, everything has been considered for your comfort. Since the procedure is performed under local anesthesia that ensures you are completely numb, you absolutely will not feel any pain or ache. With our advanced technology laser devices or classical methods, the diseased gum tissue is cleaned and aesthetic shaping is done. Thanks to the use of lasers, there is almost no bleeding. Our interpreters accompanying you in your native language throughout the entire process make you feel at home.

Return to Your Country

The procedure is successfully completed on the same day, usually in a short time like an hour. While your gums enter a rapid healing process, you return home with a healthy, symmetrical, and flawless-looking brand new smile, and a happy holiday memory.

Recovery Process and Aftercare

The healing process after gingivectomy and gingivoplasty procedures is quite fast and comfortable, especially when lasers are used. It is natural to feel a slight aching after the effect of the local anesthesia wears off following the procedure; however, the painkillers our doctor will prescribe for you will allow you to get through this process without feeling it. Most of our patients can return to their daily routines immediately after the procedure.

For healing to take place in the best way, you need to make minor touches to your eating and drinking habits for the first few days. You should stay away from very hot, extremely cold, spicy, and sharp foods for a short time; you should prefer soft foods like yogurt, puree, or warm soup. In addition, to completely zero out the risk of infection, you should use the mouthwashes our doctor will recommend regularly and treat the treated area very gently during the first weeks while brushing your teeth. When healing is complete, you can safely consume everything with your new and healthy gums.
