What is melanocytic pigmentation?

Melanocytic depigmentation in the gums may not be a widely known condition, but it can affect anyone. Melanin (the pigment cells responsible for darker, tanner colors) can sometimes overproduce in the gums, resulting in dark spots or patches. If left untreated, it can lead to uneven gum coloration and impact your smile’s aesthetics.

While some forms of melanocytic pigmentation occur naturally, others may indicate underlying medical conditions. For instance, abnormal pigmentation may indicate skin cancer or a genetic disorder. It is crucial to monitor any changes in skin pigmentation and seek medical attention if necessary.

Signs that You Could Benefit from Gingival Depigmentation

Laser gum depigmentation can restore your gums’ uniformity. Candidates for gum depigmentation may include those with a genetic predisposition, hormonal changes, or medication side effects. Additionally, a common side effect of smoking can be darkened gums. If you notice discoloration in your gums and feel self-conscious, consult our Los Angeles dentist. Dr. Adelpour can help restore your confidence by creating a more uniform smile.

Laser Gum Depigmentation Expectations

Laser gingival depigmentation is minimally-invasive. Our Los Angeles cosmetic dentist uses laser energy to peel off the gingival epithelium (a natural barrier that separates biofilm and gum tissue). Since our soft tissue dental laser minimizes bleeding, Dr. Adelpour can work quickly and with more visibility at the surgical site.

Overall, patients who undergo this procedure experience less tissue loss. Plus, they suffer from fewer post-operative complications, such as discomfort, infection, and swelling. Also, the risk of relapse diminishes with the dental diode laser.
