Gingivectomy – precise correction of the gums using an XO cautery.
An aesthetic and healthy smile is not only about straight teeth, but also about the right shape and gum line. Gingivectomy, or surgical gum correction, is a modern procedure that allows you to restore the harmonious appearance of your gums and improve your oral health. At the Materna Dental Clinic, we perform this procedure using the modern XO cautery – a device that provides maximum precision, minimal discomfort and a shorter healing time.
When is it worth performing a gingivectomy?
- For overgrown gums covering the tooth crown,
- In the case of the so-called “gummy smile”,
- As an element of prosthetic or orthodontic preparation,
- To improve the aesthetics of your smile.
Why the XO cautery?
The XO cautery allows for extremely precise modeling of the gum line while reducing bleeding and pain. Thanks to electrocautery technology, tissues are automatically closed, which reduces the risk of infection and significantly speeds up the healing process.
