Gum Lift (Excessive or Uneven Gums)

Excessive or uneven gums can affect the appearance of your smile, making teeth appear short or small. A gum lift, also known as a gingivectomy or gingival lift, is a cosmetic dental procedure designed to correct this. This procedure involves removing or reshaping excess gum tissue to reveal more of the tooth structure, creating a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing smile.

Unlike crown lengthening, which removes both bone and gum tissue, a gum lift focuses solely on the gum tissue. Modern laser technology has significantly improved the gum lift procedure, making it faster, nearly painless, and reducing recovery time.

A gum lift can be performed independently or in conjunction with other cosmetic treatments, such as orthodontics, as part of a comprehensive smile makeover. If you’re concerned about a ‘gummy smile’ or the appearance of small teeth, a gum lift may be an excellent option to enhance your smile.

5-star reviews

Great staff and Dr Mark was very efficient and kind. They make you feel like your family and are actually concerned with your needs. They are also very upfront with pricing. I’ve had a fear of going back to the dentist for years and Dr Mark S was amazing!!!

I love this office. I’ve been going to this group of doctors for over 30 years! They make you feel comfortable if you’re there for a simple cleaning or something more aggressive like tooth extractions or root canals. They have a wonderful staff and offer options on payments as well. I highly recommend HB dental center to keep your teeth happy.😃

Huntington Beach dental Center, I'm an older fella so I've been to a few dentists in my life, This dental office is amazing, To me, they are the best hands-down! I don't think I've ever felt any pain, They quite often asked , let us know if you have any pain, They are absolutely the best in my opinion and the staff is the best. Also, they are very kind and humble people and I love coming to this office, Great doctors great staff! Keep up the excellent work!

HB Dental is great! LOVE my hygienist Georgette as she is gentle and thorough and personable as are the rest of the staff who have worked on my teeth. I recently had the need for 6 teeth to be bonded to deal with my receding gum line and both Dr Maryanne Young and Dr Ben Young did the work quickly and painlessly and at reasonable prices.

So glad I picked this dentist office, everyone there is great and they did a great job on my front teeth. Had to remove the veneers on my 4 front teeth and replace. No pain at all all! The whole process from start to finish was 3 hours and I was comfortable the whole time.

Dentist and staff are attentive and skilled. I give them high marks across the board. The are very efficient when it comes to time management as well.
