Gingivectomy in Dr. Mariana Mota
About the clinic
Gingivectomy at the clinic of Dr. Mariana Mota in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, focuses on reshaping the gum line to improve smile aesthetics. This procedure is a primary choice for patients looking to fix a gummy smile or uneven gum contours. The clinic operates under registration CRORJ 37174, providing professional dental services in a regulated environment.
Gum Reshaping Methods
The main goal of a gingivectomy is to change how the gums frame the teeth. By removing or reshaping excess gum tissue, the dentist makes the teeth appear longer and more symmetrical. This process helps create a balanced look between the lips, teeth, and gums. Patients often choose this treatment to address aesthetic concerns that cannot be fixed by whitening or veneers alone.
Complete Smile Upgrades
Many patients choose to combine gum reshaping with other cosmetic treatments. The clinic frequently pairs a gingivectomy with professional teeth whitening. This combination addresses both the shape of the gums and the color of the teeth at the same time. This approach helps achieve a more significant transformation in a shorter period.
Clinic Locations in Rio de Janeiro
Dr. Mariana Mota provides dental care across two different areas of the city. Patients can visit the unit in Leblon or the branch in Tijuca. Both locations offer the same standards of care for gum contouring and aesthetic dentistry. Having two units makes it easier for international and local patients to access treatment in convenient parts of Rio de Janeiro.

Dr. Mariana Mota: more details about the clinic
Dr. Mariana Mota is a private dental clinic in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The practice runs two units in the Leblon and Tijuca neighborhoods. It focuses on restorative and aesthetic dental care under a single-doctor model.
Accreditations and Professional Standing
The clinic is licensed under registration CRORJ 37174. Dr. Mariana Mota has practiced dentistry since 2012, bringing over 13 years of clinical experience. She specializes in Restorative Dentistry, focusing on complex aesthetic cases through conservative methods.
Aesthetic and Restorative Dentistry
The practice specializes in smile transformations that preserve natural tooth structure. Dr. Mota follows a minimally invasive philosophy. She adds material only where needed to achieve symmetry, so there's no unnecessary grinding or enamel reduction.
Specialized procedures at the clinic include:
- Resin Veneers – Also called resin lenses, used for color correction and closing gaps between teeth.
- Dental Bonding – Composite resin repairs conoid-shaped teeth or non-carious cervical lesions.
- Gingivectomy – Gum reshaping, often combined with whitening for a complete smile upgrade.
- Teeth Whitening – Professional brightening treatments integrated into restorative plans.
A new smile test during the first consultation lets patients preview proposed changes before final restorations. Case monitoring shows resin restorations here keep their color and shine for over 3 years without cracks or fractures.
Advanced Prophylaxis Technology
For preventive care and cleaning, the clinic uses the GBT Machine by EMS Dental. This system follows the Guided Biofilm Therapy protocol to remove plaque and calculus with high precision. A blue dye highlights areas that need treatment.
The clinic uses Airflow technology for dental prophylaxis, which offers several benefits:
- Erythritol particles for gentle but effective cleaning
- Reduced vibration and adjustable power for greater comfort
- Integrated warm water systems to prevent sensitivity
This technology makes routine cleanings easier for patients with sensitive teeth.
