Pink Aesthetics
Pink aesthetics is the collective term for procedures aimed at improving the color, shape, and symmetry of gum tissue. A beautiful smile depends not only on the whiteness and alignment of teeth but also on the healthy pink color and symmetrical structure of the gums. Pink aesthetics, combined with tooth treatments known as "white aesthetics," offers a holistic smile design.
Pink aesthetics encompasses procedures such as gum contouring, gum depigmentation (lightening of dark-colored gums), papilla reconstruction (filling the gum spaces between teeth), and gum grafting. Each procedure is planned according to the patient's specific needs.
Thanks to modern laser technology and microsurgical techniques, these procedures are performed in a minimally invasive manner, in a short time, and with high success rates.
Who Is This Treatment For?
Pink aesthetic procedures are recommended for anyone dissatisfied with their gum appearance. Patients with gum discoloration, asymmetry, or shape irregularities are candidates for treatment. Those seeking a smile makeover or wanting to improve gum compatibility after implants or prosthetics can also benefit from pink aesthetics. Treatment is preferably performed after resolving any active gum infections.
