About the functions of the gums
The gums are the first natural barrier in the mouth against harmful bacteria. They cover the gums, jawbones, and tooth roots, keeping them in their natural place. They also give the teeth a beautiful and regular appearance whenever they are even and of a natural color. Gum infections can affect the survival of teeth in the mouth and cause them to wear out. If they persist for a long time, they can lead to severe toothache, bad breath, and even tooth loss.
Conditions that must be met before gum surgery
The patient should not suffer from any immune problems or blood clotting disorders, as severe blood thinning can impede wound healing after gum surgery, leading to severe bleeding in the gums. The patient should also not have any contraindications to laser use.
If the procedure is performed using a laser, it is preferable that no recent surgical procedures have been performed. Gum cosmetic surgery may cause some tooth sensitivity, and if there is already tooth sensitivity, cosmetic surgery may increase this sensitivity.
Before gum cosmetic surgery
The dentist at Related Clinic will discuss with the patient the desired gum contouring procedure and the desired final appearance. He may use a pen to draw the new gum line to clearly convey the complete image to the patient. Local anesthesia is also used to prevent pain during the surgery. The dentist may also remove some bone from the gums to achieve the best results.
Types of gum surgery
There are many aesthetic gum problems, and each problem has its own treatment that differs from the other depending on the type of problem and the most common procedures:
- Receding gums: Pink gum tissue may rise above the teeth, making them appear longer than they actually are. This problem may be an indicator of gum disease, which leads to damage to the supporting tissues and bone. It may also result from various causes, such as rough handling of the teeth when brushing, which causes the toothbrush to rub against the gums and erode their tissues, or poor cleaning of the teeth and failure to remove tartar from the teeth, or using the mouth to hold various objects such as:
Holding nails and hard objects that put pressure on the gums, wearing braces for a long time or having a removable denture with the problem will greatly affect the shape and appearance of the gums and wear out the tissues in them. Sometimes the problem of tooth recession itself leads to damage and loss of teeth because it may reach the point of exposing the roots of the teeth. The dental surgeon may treat it by adding tissue similar to the gum tissue from another donor or from the roof of the mouth or from the gum areas.
Adjacent to the same person, but in this case the process is left until the opinion of the doctors performing this process is taken and what is related to the available area and the other is related to the area of the gums that are to be beautified, and the beautification process for the gums in this case is considered healthy before it is just a routine procedure to cover the roots of the teeth and protect them from falling out or damaging the nerves of the teeth and exposing them to sensitivity.
- Gum recession surgery: Gum recession, or protruding gums, means that the gums cover a large area of the teeth, making them appear much smaller. This problem may be hereditary or related to some dental pathology. It may also occur as a side effect of some medications. In gum protrusion surgery, the dental surgeon surgically removes excess tissue using conventional surgical tools or with a laser, as the laser is a better surgical option.
- Uneven gum line correction: This type of gum surgery typically combines the two previous techniques of receding gums and protruding gums, as the gum line is present in some areas and protruding in others. In other words, the dental surgeon removes gum tissue from some areas and adds it to other areas.
- Upper gum lift: The upper gums protrude for several reasons, the most important of which may be that the gums grow faster, the muscles controlling the upper lip are strong, causing the teeth and gums to protrude, or the upper jaw to protrude, causing the teeth and gums to protrude together, and the upper lip to be short.
The upper gums can also be beautified by injecting Botox into the lip to reduce their size, and by orthodontic treatment if protruding teeth are the cause, or by gum reduction surgery if the gums are thick.
Advantages of laser gum rejuvenation
Laser cosmetic surgery may often be more expensive than surgical cosmetic surgery, but it has many advantages:
- Ease of control of the laser beam makes this procedure more accurate.
- The laser closes blood vessels and wounds resulting from cosmetic gum surgery, preventing bleeding and accelerating wound healing.
- There is no risk of infection during laser surgery, unlike the risk of infection during surgery with conventional instruments if there is a deficiency in sterilization.
- Lasers stop bacteria from working, so the risk of infection is much lower in a laser gum rejuvenation procedure than in a conventional surgical procedure.
After gum surgery
You must know how to beautify the gums with the best techniques. You will be discharged from the clinic on the same day of the operation, but you may need to rest completely during the first day after the operation and avoid any strenuous activity to avoid bleeding or infection of the wound. The doctor will also prescribe some painkillers and anti-inflammatory drugs for the patient, but be careful and avoid taking aspirin because it causes blood thinning and increases the possibility of bleeding.
During the first days after the operation, eat soft foods and cold drinks, and avoid eating any foods that contain a lot of spices, as they are dangerous to the wound and can cause inflammation.
If there is noticeable swelling or bleeding after the operation, you should consult a specialist.
