Gingivoplasty is the '''removal of gingival pockets''' by excision of the gingiva, or recontouring the gingiva to its proper anatomical form. It is indicated for the management of [[Gingival Hyperplasia|gingival hyperplasia]]. In this situation the excessive gingival tissue should be excised, leaving a normal depth of healthy gingiva.
