Common questions
What is a gummy smile?
A gummy smile occurs when too much gum tissue is visible when you smile, making your teeth appear smaller or shorter than they actually are. Common causes include excessive gum tissue, an upper lip that lifts higher than normal, or improper tooth eruption. Genetics, certain medical conditions, or jaw positioning can also contribute to the issue. Our team will assess the cause and recommend the most effective treatment to help you achieve a balanced, natural-looking smile.
How does laser gum contouring correct a gummy smile?
Laser gum contouring reshapes the gumline by gently removing excess tissue using advanced laser technology. The laser allows for precise, controlled removal without affecting healthy areas, creating a more proportional balance between your gums and teeth. This minimally invasive procedure reduces bleeding, swelling, and recovery time compared to traditional gum surgery. In just one appointment, you’ll notice a significant improvement in the appearance of your smile.
How long do the results of gummy smile treatment last?
The results of laser gum contouring are long-lasting and, in many cases, permanent. By removing excess gum tissue, we help reveal more of your natural teeth, creating a balanced, beautiful smile. Maintaining good oral hygiene and scheduling regular dental checkups are essential to preserving your results. Additional treatments like veneers or facial rejuvenation can enhance and maintain your smile’s overall appearance.
