GUMMY SMILES TREATMENT

What causes a gummy smile?

Several factors can contribute to a gummy smile, including:

Overactive lip muscles: Muscles that pull your upper lip too high, exposing more gum tissue.

Excessive gum tissue: Gums naturally vary in size, and some individuals have naturally more prominent gum tissue.

Short teeth: When your teeth erupt partially, they may appear shorter, making gums seem more visible.

Benefits of gummy smile treatment

Enhanced aesthetics: Achieve a more balanced and proportional smile line.

Improved confidence: Smile freely and openly without self-consciousness.

Easier oral hygiene: Reduce gum pockets and potential for gum disease.

Improved self-esteem: Boost your confidence and overall well-being.

Which treatment is right for you?

The best approach depends on the underlying cause and severity of your gummy smile. Schedule a consultation with a qualified dentist to discuss your individual needs and explore the most suitable treatment options.
