Receding or uneven gums can cause sensitivity, change your smile’s appearance, and affect long-term oral health. Our team blends advanced technology with a compassionate touch to rebuild or reshape your gums so your smile looks natural and feels comfortable. If you’re in Reston, Virginia, we’re ready to help you regain confidence in your smile.
Request AppointmentAt our Reston, Virginia practice, we repair thinning or receding gums and gently reshape “gummy” or uneven gumlines. You’ll receive a customized plan that protects sensitive roots, improves symmetry, and supports lasting oral health—delivered with comfort-first techniques and clear guidance at every step.
Gum grafting: We gently add tissue—often from the palate or a donor/collagen matrix—to areas of recession. Local anesthesia (and optional sedation) keeps you comfortable. Most patients heal in 1–2 weeks, with results continuing to improve as the graft integrates.
Gum contouring: Using a soft-tissue laser, we precisely reshape excess or uneven gums, typically in a single visit. There’s minimal bleeding, little to no stitching, and you’ll see an immediate improvement in tooth display and smile balance.
