✨ Gangnam Leong Dental’s ‘New-Teeth’ Gum Whitening

When people think of gum whitening, many think of lasers. However, Gangnam Leong Dental uses 💎 a polishing method with a dental bur for more definite and satisfying results.

🔍 Why use the ‘bur’ method instead of a laser?

In some cases, laser treatment may require repeated sessions, but Gangnam Leong Dental’s New-Teeth gum whitening ✨ uses a precise diamond bur to thinly and evenly remove the pigmented melanin layer,

📌 so even a single session can produce noticeable improvement.

In fact, satisfaction after the procedure tends to be high, and the gums are left looking naturally clean and refined 😊

⏰ How is the procedure performed? (Approximate time: 10–30 minutes)

1️⃣ Detailed examination & scaling First, the condition of the gums is carefully checked. Scaling is also performed to prevent infection and ensure a clean procedure.

2️⃣ Local anesthesia without pain concerns To prevent discomfort during the procedure, local anesthesia is carefully administered 😊

3️⃣ Gum protection and soothing care Depending on the case, after the procedure protective agents may be applied or pain medication may be prescribed.

4️⃣ Soothing and recovery The procedure is completed by protecting and soothing the treated area!

Duration & precautions ‼️ The effects of gum whitening can be seen immediately after the procedure, and after a recovery period of about 1–2 weeks, natural and healthy pink gums are completed.

⏳ How long does it last? Although it varies depending on a person’s lifestyle, 📌 it typically lasts about 2–5 years on average.

💡 Tips for maintaining it longer! 🚭 Quit smoking Smoking is the biggest cause of gum repigmentation.

☕ Be careful with staining foods Reduce foods and drinks with strong pigments, such as coffee and wine.

🪥 Thorough oral hygiene management Especially right after the procedure, oral cleanliness is important to help prevent infection!
