This surgical intervention involves the removal or reduction of excess gum tissue. This technique helps improve the aesthetics of the smile by eliminating visible gums.

If the cause of the gummy smile is related to a lower-than-normal upper lip, a lip lift procedure can slightly raise the lip, reducing gum exposure when smiling.

In more severe cases where the bone structure affects the excessive exposure of the gums, orthognathic surgery may be an option. This surgery involves changing the maxillary structure to correct the positioning of the teeth and gums.

Is the gummy smile procedure painful?

The gummy smile procedure is generally performed with local anesthesia, so you should not feel pain during the procedure. However, you may experience some discomfort or pain after the surgery, which can generally be controlled with over-the-counter medications.

What are the risks associated with gummy smile treatment?

The risks associated with gummy smile treatment include:

Can I undergo this treatment if I have dental issues?

If you have dental problems or periodontal diseases, it is important to treat those issues first before undergoing the treatment to correct the gummy smile. A specialist will conduct a full evaluation of your dental health to ensure the procedure is safe.

Is it necessary to undergo more than one treatment to achieve the best results?

Depending on the case, some people may require more than one treatment to achieve the desired results. This will be evaluated by your surgeon, who will guide you on the best approach for your particular situation.
