What is Gum Aesthetics and Why is it Important?

✨ Gum Aesthetics for a Healthier, More Beautiful Smile

  • Gum aesthetics is a treatment process designed to create healthier, more symmetrical, and natural-looking gum tissue.
  • The balance between teeth and gums plays a vital role in achieving a harmonious and attractive smile.
  • Gum problems are not just cosmetic—they can significantly affect oral health and lead to issues such as tooth loss.
  • Pink aesthetic treatments can successfully correct concerns like gum recession, gummy smile, or asymmetrical gum tissue.

When is Gum Aesthetics Necessary?

🔍 Common Issues Treated with Gum Aesthetic Procedures

  • Gummy Smile (Excessive Gum Visibility): Some individuals feel uncomfortable when too much of their gums show while smiling.
  • Gum Asymmetry: Uneven or disproportionate gum lines can make teeth appear mismatched in length.
  • Gum Recession: Exposed tooth roots may cause sensitivity, aesthetic concerns, and an increased risk of tooth loss.
  • Gum Color Issues: Healthy gums are typically light pink. Dark red, purple, or inflamed gums may signal the need for treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions

The budget for hair transplantation in Turkey can vary depending on several factors. Generally, hair transplantation prices in Turkey may be more economical compared to other countries. However, it is difficult to provide an exact price because the prices vary based on clinics, doctors, techniques used, and the individual's hair transplantation needs. Generally, your budget for hair transplantation in Turkey may need to be at least between 2000 and 7000 USD or Euro.


When selecting the best clinic or doctor for hair transplantation, you should consider the following factors:

* Firstly, it is important to choose an experienced and expert doctor or clinic.

* Research the doctor's experience, success stories, and expertise in the field of hair transplantation.

* Checking references and real user reviews can also be helpful. Additionally, it is important to gather information about the quality and up-to-dateness of the technology and equipment they use. A good doctor or clinic will prioritize patient satisfaction, communicate well, and provide you with a personalized treatment plan. By considering these factors, you can choose the one that is most suitable for you.

The hair grafts are extracted from the backside of the head, which we determine as between two ears and above the neck. The reason for choosing this specific area as a donor (extraction zone) is that the hair grafts in this region are genetically encoded against inherent hair fall. If the extraction process from this region is performed with better quality artistry, hair fall will never occur for a lifetime. Therefore, we take the hair grafts from the backside of the head, which we call the donor area.

The hair roots are homogeneously extracted one by one with the help of the latest technology system called the FUE method. After the process is over, the hair will never grow the place taken from since it is taken with its root, but it will not be visible since it is done with cater-corner homogeneously

Hair transplantation is generally considered a permanent solution. The transplanted hair, which typically consists of hair follicles taken from the donor area, does not fall out. The hair follicles in the donor area are genetically programmed to be permanent, so they do not have a tendency to shed. Therefore, there is no hair loss in the areas where hair transplantation is performed.

Hair transplantation is a surgical solution for hair loss. Suitable candidates depend on factors like the cause of hair loss, its stage, age, health, donor hair availability, expectations, psychological readiness, commitment to aftercare, and hair texture. Consulting an experienced surgeon is crucial for personalized advice and discussing techniques like FUT or FUE. Not everyone is a candidate, and alternative treatments may be suggested.
