Laser Gum Depigmentation (laser Gum Bleaching) in Dubai:

Your dentist will examine the gums before starting the procedure. You have to inform your dentist if you are taking any medications. The procedure starts by giving local anaesthesia to the gums to make them numb. The whole procedure takes approximately 50 minutes to 1 hour.

The laser beam is administered into the gums which removes all the cells responsible for the pigmentation.
