Our gums may go from pink to black or brown over a period of time, which is a result of melanin concentration. This excess of melanin can be mainly because of genetic factors. It may not be a medical condition but it is not appealing for most of us with respect to aesthetic reasons. Gum depigmentation also known as Gum Bleaching is a cosmetic dental procedure that aims to remove the appearance of dark spots on the gum. It is suitable for both men and women.

How to Prepare for Treatment?
Gum depigmentation is a simple treatment but you will have to follow a few instructions given by your doctor before the treatment to ensure the success of the procedure and your safety. Your oral health will be examined by your doctor in an initial meeting which will help in making an effective treatment plan. Common pre-treatment instructions given to patients are;

Depigmentation Procedure
Gum Bleaching in Dubai is a simple cosmetic procedure that requires 25 to 50 minutes for completion. However, the time required for the procedure is dependent on the concentration of melanin and the size of the gums. You may require a local anesthetic injection to avoid any kind of discomfort.
Gum depigmentation treatment is best performed with the help of lasers. During the laser gum depigmentation procedure, the uppermost layer of gum tissues is removed and the heat of the laser destroys the cells that are responsible for melanin production. The new layer of tissues revealed after the treatment is pink in color.
