PERIODONTAL PLASTIC SURGERY in VOORHEES, NJ
Define Your Smile With Periodontal Plastic Surgery
Non-Surgical Treatment To Help Your Smile
Periodontists are often called the plastic surgeons of dentistry. Periodontal plastic surgery focuses on your gums, alveolar bone, and the mucus membranes of your mouth to restore the aesthetics, health, and functionality of your smile. If you have a “gummy” smile or any other cosmetic dental concerns, periodontal plastic surgery can help.
Our board-certified periodontists, Dr. Wael Isleem and Dr. Alan Meltzer, proudly provide expert non-surgical periodontal treatment in Voorhees, NJ. Using our KaVo dental laser, our procedures are minimally invasive. We can improve the look and function of your gum tissue with:
- little to no discomfort during your procedure

If you suffer from dental anxiety and want the smile you’ve always dreamed of, we at Advanced Oral Specialty Group can give you results you can be proud of without the need for scalpels! If you’d like to learn more, contact our skilled team today.
Issues that Periodontal Plastic Surgery Can Fix
This is a common issue that involves your gums pulling away from your teeth and leaving your roots exposed. It can be caused by:
- Gum disease
- Aggressive tooth brushing
- Poor oral hygiene
- Smoking and tobacco use
- Hormonal changes
- Teeth grinding
- Genetics
Aesthetic Concerns:
Our Cosmetic Periodontal Treatments
Too much gum tissue covering your teeth gives the illusion of a “gummy” smile that you may find unattractive. We gently remove and reshape the gum tissue with a dental laser to ensure natural and symmetrical arches over each tooth. This improves your tooth-to-gum ratio and your overall smile aesthetics.
Crown Lengthening
Teeth that need treatment or a cosmetic restoration but are covered by excessive gum tissue can benefit from crown lengthening. During this procedure, we use our dental laser to remove the gum tissue around the tooth crown to gain access to the areas in need of treatment.
Gum Bleaching
If your gums are healthy but you find their dark hue to be unattractive, we offer laser gum bleaching. This depigmentation removes outer layers of melanin-rich dark gum tissue to reveal the healthy, pink tissue beneath. The appointment is short and painless, with immediate and long-lasting results.
Teeth Whitening
Additionally, we offer Opalescence® teeth whitening to complement our periodontal plastic surgery treatments. This professional-grade whitening provides more dramatic bleaching without the sensitivity or lengthy treatment times of over-the-counter options.
