Gummy Smile Treatments

A gummy smile occurs when excessive gum tissue is visible while smiling, often impacting confidence. Treatments include:

Cosmetic Injectables

Small amounts of anti-wrinkle treatments can relax the upper lip muscles, reducing gum exposure.

Gum Surgery

This is known as crown lengthening, and removes excess gum tissue for a balanced smile.

Indirect Restorations

Dental crowns or veneers can enhance the length and appearance of teeth to complement gum surgery.

Anti-Wrinkle Treatments and/or Dermal Fillers:
The Procedure

Initial Assessment: Your dentist or TMJ specialist will evaluate your symptoms and medical history to determine a suitable treatment for you.

Treatment: During the procedure, a fine needle is used to inject small amounts of anti-wrinkle or filler into the targeted area. The process is relatively painless, though you might feel a slight pinch or discomfort.

Post-Treatment Care: Following the injections, you can resume normal activities immediately. However, you should avoid strenuous activities, rubbing the injection site, or lying down for a few hours to prevent the toxin from spreading to unintended areas.

Are there side effects with anti-wrinkle treatments and dermal fillers?

Most side effects are mild and temporary, including slight bruising, swelling, or tenderness at the injection site. In few cases, patients may experience more significant side effects which will be discussed before treatment.
