How Gingivectomy/Gingivoplasty is performed
Can be performed after controlling inflammation, with the gingival margin line and exposure range designed beforehand if necessary. Usually under local anesthesia, excess gingival tissue is removed with a scalpel or electrosurgery, the edges are shaped as needed, and hemostasis is achieved; if necessary, sutures are placed and a protective dressing is applied. Postoperative monitoring includes bleeding, pain, and accessibility for cleaning, with the goal of restoring gingival morphology and crown exposure that facilitate cleaning. The above is general health information, not medical advice; specific details depend on specialist assessment and hospital protocols.
