The procedure can be performed on its own or combined with other dental treatments that complement smile aesthetics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For international patients travelling to Istanbul for gingivectomy, the extent of the procedure may vary depending on the gum structure, the area to be reshaped and whether another dental treatment is required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Gummy Smile Treatment in Istanbul, Turkey | Less Gum.

Whether the procedure involves only a specific area or a wider section of the gum line is determined during the clinical assessment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If gingivectomy is planned together with another cosmetic dental treatment, the total treatment cost may vary depending on the additional procedures required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Factors Affecting the Cost of Gum Contouring<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While the basic price of gingivectomy is calculated per jaw, the overall treatment plan may vary according to the patient\u2019s needs. The following factors are particularly considered:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Whether the procedure is planned for one or both jaws<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The extent of the gum area to be reshaped<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Whether an additional gum procedure is required<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Whether gingivectomy is combined with another cosmetic dental treatment<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cosmetic Treatments That Can Be Combined with Gum Contouring<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The gum line is only one of the elements that shape the overall appearance of a smile. The colour, shape and length of the teeth, as well as their proportions in relation to one another, can also influence smile aesthetics. For this reason, gingivectomy may form part of a more comprehensive cosmetic dental treatment plan for some patients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When planning a <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.turkaesthetic.com\/en\/hollywood-smile\/\">Hollywood Smile<\/a><\/strong>, the gum line and the appearance of the teeth can be assessed together. Depending on the patient\u2019s needs, options such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.turkaesthetic.com\/en\/dental-veneer\/\">dental veneers<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.turkaesthetic.com\/en\/zirconium-crown\/\">zirconium crowns<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.turkaesthetic.com\/en\/e-max\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.turkaesthetic.com\/en\/e-max\/\">E-max<\/a> may also be included in the treatment plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The treatments to be combined are determined according to the existing appearance of the teeth and gum line. Not every patient requires an additional cosmetic dental treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If dark discolouration or pigmentation of the gums is the main concern rather than their shape, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.turkaesthetic.com\/en\/dental\/gum-depigmentation-turkey\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.turkaesthetic.com\/en\/dental\/gum-depigmentation-turkey\/\">gum depigmentation in Turkey<\/a><\/strong> may be considered instead of gingivectomy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Planning for International Patients<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For patients planning to travel to Turkey for gum contouring, the initial assessment can begin before the trip. This makes it possible to obtain preliminary information about the current appearance of the gums and any other planned dental treatments before arriving in Istanbul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The following information can usually be shared for the initial assessment:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Clear front-facing photos of the teeth and gums<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Photos taken while smiling<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Existing dental imaging, if available<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Information about previous dental treatments<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Information about the area of the gums the patient would like to change<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although a preliminary assessment can be made using photographs, the final treatment plan and extent of the procedure are determined after a clinical examination in Istanbul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gum Contouring in Istanbul<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gum contouring in Istanbul can be planned as a standalone procedure or combined with different cosmetic dental treatments during the same trip. For international patients in particular, determining the required procedures in advance can help organise appointments and accommodation in Istanbul more efficiently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After the patient arrives in Istanbul, the gum line and current condition of the teeth are clinically assessed. The preliminary assessment carried out before travel may be updated when necessary according to the examination findings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Follow-Up After Leaving Turkey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For international patients, the follow-up plan can be arranged as far as possible around the length of stay in Istanbul and the return date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Necessary check-ups can be planned before leaving Turkey.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>After returning home, the appearance of the gums can be followed through photographs.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If an additional assessment is required, communication with the patient can continue and the next steps can be determined.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gum Contouring in Turkey with Turk Aesthetic<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At Turk Aesthetic, planning for international patients considering gum contouring can begin before travelling to Turkey:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A preliminary assessment can be carried out using photographs before travel.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Appointments in Istanbul can be planned according to the patient\u2019s travel schedule.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>When necessary, gingivectomy can be considered together with other cosmetic dental treatments.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The final treatment plan is determined after the clinical examination.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gum contouring in Turkey reshapes excess gum tissue for a more balanced smile.
