Gummy Smile Tedavisi
Overview
What is Gummy Smile Correction?
In a perfect smile, the upper lip sits just above the top of the teeth. A “gummy smile,” however, exposes a larger than average amount of gum tissue and has a noticeably disproportionate gum-totooth ratio.
It is not uncommon patients think that their teeth are too short as the underlying problem. In reality, there is just excessive gum tissue covering the rest of the tooth. There can be multiple reasons why the gum tissue is overgrown. Most of the time a simple cosmetic procedure is all that is needed for gummy smile correction. In some cases, the correction for smile design can be completed with the addition of crowns and/or veneers.

Procedure
Details of the Procedure
Gummy smile correction procedures are categorised into two sections:
- Gingivectomy : A treatment for the correction of mild gummy smile problems. Minimal gum tissue is removed with a dental laser and no sutures are required. Patients go back to work the next day.
- Crown lengthening for severe cases: This procedure involves more tissue reduction, gums being contoured around each individual tooth, the tissue being lifted off the bone and repositioned to obtain the desired look. Requires a healing time between 5 to 7 weeks.
Technology
A dental laser is used to recontour the gums to reveal more tooth structure beneath the gums for gummy smile correction in our clinic. This procedure has very satisfying results with minimal sensitivity to give you the length and beauty of a natural smile.
Itinerary
1 appointment for gummy smile correction 1 week in total, 2 to 5 appointments if crowns and/or veneers are also involved
