 Do
you feel your teeth look too short and your smile is
too gummy or your gums cover too much of some teeth
while leaving the others the right length. While for
most people smiling is an expression of happiness, do
you feel self-conscious while smiling as your gums stand
out more? In an ideal smile ,the upper lip sits just
at or above the top of the teeth with about eight to
ten upper teeth showing.The general rule is that one
to two millimeter of gum exposure with a maximal smile
is aesthetically acceptable.
SO WHAT IS A GUMMY SMILE?
Anyone who shows a significant amount of their upper
gums when they smile maybe
considered to have this condition, which creates an unbalanced
look, emphasizing gums over teeth. Excess gum tissue
or an upper lip that lifts considerably when a person
smiles are the main causes for a gummy smile appearance.
Gummy smiles can also be caused by attrition (teeth have
been severely worn down), altered passive eruption of
teeth, irritation from braces, mouth breathing habit or
medications causing gum overgrowth.
A gummy smile is more than a cosmetic problem
,wherein it can make you self-conscious and cause you
to cover up your true emotions!!!
However, it could be corrected by absolutely pain free
treatment procedures at
GUMS N SMILES DENTAL CENTRE.
A
gum re-contouring procedure can be used to reveal more
of your front teeth. Gingivectomy / ginigivoplasty is where
the gum tissue is surgically excised. This procedure
that sculpts your gum line can be painlessly done using
lasers also.At times the underlying bone can also be
contoured if required. After a very comfortable pain free
healing period, laminates or veneers can be done to alter
the mal aligned or misshapen teeth and restore not
only your smile but your self confidence back!!
The other procedure is a lip lowering procedure.The
lip lowering technique modifies the area where the upper
lip and the gum tissue conjoin. Using a minor periodontal
surgical procedure, the upper high lip line is just repositioned
or lowered. The outcome is surely very dramatic and rewarding
of course!!
The
other non-surgical approach to this is to go the “BOTOX
 WAY”
This simple procedure is where small amount of
BOTOX is injected on each side of your lip.This weakens
the hyperactive muscles and reduce the elevation of
your upper lip, thereby reducing your inhibiting gummy
smile.Your new smile will last for about four to six
months helping you make up for the time you lost trying
to hide your smile!!
So from a little invasive procedure to a non- invasive
procedure, lasers to botox, GUMS N SMILES
offers you an array of absolute pain free treatment
options for your gummy smile!!!!
