Make a Dazzling First Impression
Do you feel like your teeth look too short and your smile is too gummy, or your gums cover too much of some teeth? Then you have a gummy smile or uneven gum line. If so, crown lengthening might be your answer. This procedure removes excess gum tissue and sculpts the gumline. Do you feel you look older than you really are? Sometimes gum recession exposes the tooth root, making the teeth look long and you look older. Soft tissue grafts and other root coverage procedures cover exposed roots, reducing further gum recession and protecting those valuable roots from decay. Do you look like your own grandmother because of missing teeth? Dental implants can do away with those gaps.
Periodontists often use a combination of several types of procedures to build your perfect smile. With the variety of periodontal plastic procedures available today, you can have the smile you’ve always dreamed of. Don’t put it off. Talk with the doctor and staff at Peninsula Periodontics and Orthodontics about creating a beautiful smile now! MAGGIE’S MEMO: MAGGIE SAYS:

You
can only make a first impression once, so when you meet someone, go
on a job interview, or go out on a first date, why not dazzle him or
her with a beautiful smile? If yours is not perfect, periodontal plastic
procedures can give you a knock-their-socks-off smile that will boost
your confidence and help you be at your best. 
Tooth
loss can cause an indentation in the gums and jawbone. This happens
because the jawbone recedes when it has no tooth to hold in place. Ridge
augmentation can recapture the natural contour of the gums and jaw and
allow for placement of a natural looking new tooth.
