What is a gingivectomy?

Q. my orthodontist asked if i\’d consider a gingivectomy, what is this exactly? And what would be involved procedure wise? thank you,
A. A gingivectomy is a surgical procedure which involves removing a small cuff of gum around a tooth to improve the aesthetics etc. It is done under local anaesthetic and therefore you do not feel anything whilst having this treatment.
