GUMMY SMILE TREATMENT
A gummy smile occurs when excessive gum tissue is visible while smiling, making the teeth appear shorter or disproportionate. This condition can affect overall facial harmony and may cause self-consciousness in social or professional situations.
Gummy smile treatment is designed to gently reshape the gum line, improve the tooth-to-gum ratio, and enhance overall smile balance. Using advanced techniques and precise planning, dentists can create a more symmetrical, natural-looking smile while preserving healthy gum tissue.
With modern technology such as laser contouring and minimally invasive procedures, treatment is typically safe, comfortable, and delivers noticeable aesthetic improvement in a short time.
