when you smile. It enhances the appearance of your smile by reshaping the gum line.
Common techniques for correcting a gummy smile include:
Laser Gum Contouring: This method uses a laser to precisely reshape the gum line.
Botox Injections: Botox can be used to relax the muscles that cause the gums to show too
much.
Surgical Procedures: In more severe cases, surgery may be required to remove excess gum
tissue.
The procedure is typically painless as it is performed under local anesthesia, ensuring a
comfortable experience.
Most patients recover within a few days to a week, depending on the technique used.
Yes, the results are usually long-lasting or permanent, based on the technique applied.
