Creating aesthetically perfect smiles

In an anatomically perfectly smile, the lip should sit just above the top of the teeth. Some people however, have a disproportionate gum tissue to teeth ratio, leaving more than desirable amount of gum on show. This is what is known as a gummy smile.

Thanks to our combined expertise in both dental and facial aesthetics, we can blend the best of both practices to offer a complete Gummy Smile Makeover.

Gummy smile FAQ’s

Whilst a gummy smile poses no real health problem, it can cause a great deal of insecurity, leaving many feeling self-conscious about their smile.

A gummy smile (or excessive gingival display, as its formally known) can be caused for various reasons. In some cases, it is due to the teeth and how far they have erupted from the gum tissue. For others, it could be due to oversized gums. At times it is down to the upper lip size and response during smiling.

Around 25% of the population suffer from a gummy smile, so it’s a very common complaint in facial aesthetics. However that doesn’t mean you have to live with it. If you feel like your Gummy Smile is affecting your overall appearance and self-esteem, we have just the treatment for you.

Thanks to our combined expertise in both dental and facial aesthetics, we can blend the best of both practices to offer a complete Gummy Smile Makeover. The method that is employed to deliver a Gummy Smile makeover is determined by the predominant cause of excessive gum display. If it is the gums that are main culprit, then it is likely that most of the procedure will focus on this area. However, you may also find that in cases where the front teeth are very short or the lips too thin it is better to address these issues instead. More often than not, we will use a combined approach to reduce the gum display, leaving you with a much enhanced, super smile to be proud of.
Injection related side effects are minimal and temporary such as redness, swelling, bruising. Spreading of the Botulinum toxin to the muscle nearby that can cause temporally relaxation can be easily prevented by avoid rubbing or massaging the treated areas for approximately 4 hours post treatment.
