What is Pink Aesthetics?

Pink aesthetics refers to the arrangement of the form, symmetry and color of the gums (gingiva) in order to achieve a healthy and natural smile in dental aesthetics. Pink aesthetics, which can be considered as a complement to “white aesthetics” where teeth whiteness is at the forefront, aims for a healthy and attractive gum appearance that is suitable for the person’s facial structure.

Why Is Pink Aesthetic Important?

No matter how straight and white your teeth are, if your gums are unhealthy, asymmetrical or excessively visible, an aesthetically unpleasant appearance will occur. Especially if your gums are too visible when you smile or if your gums are receding, this can affect your self-confidence.

Pink aesthetic applications eliminate these problems and provide a more balanced, healthy and aesthetic mouth-smile harmony.

What Problems Are Treated in Pink Aesthetics?

• Gummy Smile : Excessive display of gums when smiling

• Gum recession : Tooth roots become visible

• Asymmetrical gum lines : Irregular gum contours

• Color changes : Darkening or staining of the gums

• Deformities caused by gingivitis

What are Pink Aesthetic Applications?

1. Laser Gum Reshaping (Gingivectomy)
   The gums are reshaped with a laser. It is a painless and bleeding-free procedure.

2. Gingivoplasty:
   Correction of gum contours for aesthetic purposes. The gums are made symmetrical.

3. Gum Pigmentation Treatments
   Dark discolorations on the gums are removed with laser.

4. Crown Lengthening Procedures:
   The gums that cause the teeth to appear short are lifted and the teeth are lengthened.

5. Gum Graft (Soft Tissue Graft)
   These are tissue addition procedures applied in cases of gum recession.

How Does the Treatment Process Progress?

1. Examination and Photo Analysis:
   During the first examination, your teeth and gum structure are evaluated. A smile design is made.

2. Planning:
   A treatment plan specific to you is prepared. Laser or surgical methods are determined.

3. Application:
   Short, painless procedures are usually performed with local anesthesia.

4. Healing Process:
   Healing is observed within 1-7 days. Pink aesthetic procedures provide rapid healing.
