Crown lengthening may be performed to improve the appearance of a "gummy" smile by cutting away excess gum tissue to reveal more of the tooth.

Gum surgery may be performed for both cosmetic and functional reasons in order to treat gum disease and reshape the gumline.

Scaling and root planing is used to treat the initial stage of gum disease by using special tools and techniques to clean below the gumline.

Periodontal (gum) disease can occur at various stages and may be treated through both nonsurgical and surgical procedures to restore gum health.
