Gum Contouring Sunshine Coast
Healthier Gums, Stronger Smile
Gum disease often goes unnoticed—yet it’s one of the most common causes of tooth loss in adults. Our personalised gum care services are designed to detect, treat and manage all stages of gum disease with precision, compassion, and comfort.
Whether you’re experiencing bleeding gums, bad breath, gum recession, or bone loss around your teeth, our expert team is here to help—gently and effectively.
Understanding the silent threat to your smile
What is Gum Disease?
Gum disease, also known as periodontal disease, is a chronic infection of the gums and supporting structures of the teeth. It often begins with gingivitis (inflammation of the gums) and can progress to periodontitis, which can damage the bone and lead to tooth loss if left untreated.
At Cotton Tree Dental, early detection is key. Our thorough gum assessments and advanced diagnostics allow us to identify issues early—often before symptoms are noticeable.
Signs You May Need Gum Treatment
Gum disease often develops quietly, without pain—until it’s advanced. If you’ve noticed bleeding gums, bad breath, or changes in how your teeth feel, these could be early signs that your gums need professional attention.
- Persistent bad breath
- Red, swollen or bleeding gums
- Gum recession or “long teeth” appearance
- Loose or shifting teeth
- Discomfort while brushing or chewing
Treating gum disease early prevents further damage—and supports your overall health

Will my gums grow back?
When performed correctly, gum contouring results are permanent. The reshaped gum line will maintain its new appearance, giving you long-lasting improvement to your smile.
Can gum contouring be combined with other treatments?
Absolutely. Gum contouring often complements other cosmetic treatments like veneers, crowns, or teeth whitening as part of a comprehensive smile makeover for optimal results.
How much does gum contouring cost?
When will I see the final results?
You’ll notice an immediate improvement, but final results are visible once healing is complete in about 1-2 weeks. The enhanced proportions of your smile will beautifully frame your teeth for years to come.
