Wisdom Teeth

Understanding Wisdom Teeth

Wisdom teeth, also known as third molars, are the last teeth to erupt. You usually get them in your teens or early twenties. However, rashes are also common in later adulthood. If they erupt smoothly and uninterruptedly, they can prove to be assets. The problem with third molars, however, is that if they don't erupt properly or become misaligned, they must be extracted. If they are misaligned, adjacent teeth may be damaged.

Gummy Smile Reduction

Gum reshaping, also known as a "gingivectomy," allows our cosmetic dentists to reshape the margins of the gum line. Depending on the level and overall symmetry of the gum tissue, this may include general gum lifting or just recontouring specific teeth. Gum reshaping is subtle but can have dramatic effects on your overall smile. Typically, we can use laser technology to provide same-day results and minimal recovery time.
