A beautiful smile is about balance—the right proportions between your teeth and gums can make a dramatic difference in your overall appearance. If your gums sit too high, too low, or create an uneven line, cosmetic gum surgery can bring symmetry and harmony to your smile. This procedure enhances your natural beauty and helps your teeth look longer, brighter, and more proportionate.
At DiQuattro Advanced Dentistry, Dr. Ryan DiQuattro performs precision cosmetic gum surgery as part of comprehensive smile makeover treatments for patients across Scottsdale and Phoenix. With advanced techniques and an artistic eye, he refines gum lines to frame each smile perfectly—creating results that look natural and feel effortless.
