The cost depends on which procedure you need and the extent of reshaping involved. We provide a clear treatment plan with your options and affordable solutions during your consultation.
Because these procedures are primarily cosmetic, they are often not covered by dental insurance. Coverage may apply when there is an underlying health issue, and our team will review your benefits beforehand.
The procedure is performed with anesthesia for your comfort, so you should not feel pain during treatment. Some swelling and discomfort afterward are normal and can be managed with medication.
Recovery varies by procedure, but generally involves a soft food diet, gentle oral hygiene, and avoiding tobacco. Following your aftercare instructions and attending follow-ups helps ensure smooth healing.
The full results may take several weeks or even months to appear as swelling subsides and your gums heal. With proper care and good oral hygiene, your results can last for many years.
Discuss your goals with our periodontist and disclose any medical conditions or medications you take. We will provide specific instructions, including any dietary or medication restrictions, to prepare you for a safe procedure.
