This patient transferred to our office from another state while already in braces. Dr. Propp’s treatment plan was to remove the existing braces and finish treatment with Spark clear aligners.
Before beginning aligner treatment, a gingivectomy was completed in office to remove excess gum tissue and provide the access needed for ideal tooth movement.
For years, this patient thought they simply had “small teeth,” when in reality, excess gum tissue was covering a significant portion of their natural tooth structure. By reshaping the gum tissue, we were able to uncover more of their natural smile and create the space needed to continue treatment with aligners.
Now it’s time to finish the details with Spark! We can’t wait to share the final result soon!
