Gummy Smile

Service Description

A gummy smile happens when smiling reveals excessive gum tissue above the upper teeth. It’s completely harmless, but many people feel self-conscious about it. Our targeted treatment can help you achieve a more proportionate, attractive smile without surgery or downtime. ⸻ What Causes a Gummy Smile? A gummy smile typically results from overactive muscles that lift the upper lip too high when you smile. Common causes include: Overactive levator labii superioris muscles Short upper lip Gum overgrowth or small teeth (though these may need dental treatment) When the upper lip elevates too much, it exposes more gum than desired. ⸻ How Botulinum Toxin Works for Gummy Smile A tiny amount of Toxin is precisely injected into the muscles responsible for lifting the upper lip.
