Gingival Depigmentation

Bys: Priyadharsini S, Priyadharshini R M Praveen Krishna, Poornima R

Gingival depigmentation is a periodontal cosmetic procedure performed to reduce or eliminate excessive melanin pigmentation of the gingiva and achieve a more uniform gingival appearance. It can be carried out using techniques such as scalpel surgery, gingivectomy, abrasion, electrosurgery, cryotherapy, and various lasers. Lasers offer advantages including good visibility, hemostasis, reduced postoperative discomfort, and faster healing. However, repigmentation may occur over time, depending on individual factors and the technique used.
