What is Pink Aesthetics (Gum Aesthetics)?

Pink aesthetics have a very important place in a healthy and beautiful smile. Pink aesthetics is a term that covers many treatments. It basically aims to optimize the gums in terms of color, shape and structure.

The first stage of pink aesthetics is to restore the health of the gums. Healthy gums are rose-pink in color, rough in texture, and have a firm consistency. If there are swollen and bleeding gums, it is not possible to talk about aesthetic procedures. First of all, gum disease must be treated. Within the scope of this treatment, scaling, deep cleaning (curettage-root surface flattening) or stitched procedures (flap surgeries) may be performed. Which procedure will be performed is determined by detailed clinical and radiographic examination.

Gum aesthetics can be applied after the gums become healthy.

If your gums are visible when you smile, if their levels are not the same, if your teeth are small and square-shaped, pink aesthetics can be achieved with 'aesthetic crown lengthening'. In this procedure, first of all, the gums are leveled to suit the aesthetics of your face. However, gum reshaping alone does not provide a permanent solution; the gums can return to their previous state. U  ​​This procedure is painless as it is performed under local anesthesia.

If your gums have receded and your tooth roots have been exposed, your receding tooth may appear longer than the others, causing asymmetry. You may also feel hot and cold sensitivity in the relevant tooth. This problem can be solved by making a gum patch (connective tissue graft, free gum graft). In this procedure, a piece is taken from the palate area where there is quality gum tissue and transplanted to the missing area. The palate area heals quickly and returns to its previous state. The area where the withdrawal took place The gum tissue transplanted to the eye fuses with the surrounding tissues and provides integrity. At the end of the procedure, gum symmetry is achieved and the sensitivity problem is eliminated.

 

The reason why the gums appear black-purple is the accumulation of the dark biological pigment called melanin in the gum tissues. It is not harmful to health. However, it may cause aesthetic concern. In the treatment of this condition,  the surface gum tissue is removed and the healthy, pink tissue just underneath is revealed.

Which treatment is suitable for you can be determined by a detailed examination by a Gum Disease Specialist (Periodontology Specialist).
