What is gum depigmentation?

Dark, brown or black patches on the gums are usually caused by natural melanin pigment, and sometimes by smoking. They are harmless, but many people feel self-conscious about them when they smile. Gum depigmentation is a cosmetic gum procedure that gently removes the thin, pigmented outer layer of the gum so that pinker, even-toned tissue heals in its place. At Urja Dental Clinic in Phase 3B2, Mohali, it is performed by our MDS periodontists under local anaesthesia, using a technique suited to your gums. Healing usually takes one to two weeks. Results are long-lasting, although some pigment can gradually return over the years, especially in smokers.
