A smile expresses a feeling of joy,success, sensuality, affection and courtesy, and can reflect self confidence and kindness.
The harmony of a smile is not only determined by the shape, position, and color of the teeth, but also by the gingival tissues.
Gingival health and appearance are essential components of an attractive smile.

The color of the attached and marginal gingiva is generally described as coral pink. It is determined by several factors, including the number and size of blood vessels, epithelial thickness, quantity of keratinization and pigments within the epithelium.
Gingival melanin pigmentation (GMP) may occur as a result of several physiologic and/or pathologic factors, the most common of which is the normal physiologic production of melanin.

Gingival hyperpigmentation presents as a diffuse deep-purplish discoloration or brown and light-brown patches with irregular contours that do not alter the normal oral architecture.
GMP may result in complaints about poor esthetics, especially among individuals with excessive gingival display (GUMMY SMILE ).

Scalpel surgery,
Gingivectomy,
Gingivectomy with free gingival autografting,
Cryosurgery,
