Gummy Smile Correction

Refine Your Smile Proportions

If your smile shows more gum tissue than you would like, it can make teeth appear shorter or uneven. Gummy smile correction reshapes the gum line so your teeth and gums appear balanced and natural.

With careful planning and surgical precision, our team can reveal more of your natural tooth structure and create a smile that feels more confident, refined, and proportionate.

Why Patients Choose Gummy Smile Correction

Excess gum tissue can make healthy teeth appear shorter or uneven. Gummy smile correction reshapes the gum line to create better balance between your teeth and gums, helping your smile appear more proportionate and symmetrical. This treatment is commonly referred to as esthetic crown lengthening because it reveals more of your natural tooth structure. In addition to improving appearance, it can also create the proper foundation for treatments such as veneers or crowns.

Before recommending treatment, your doctor evaluates several important factors, including:

• Tooth shape and size
• Gum position
• Bone structure
• Bite stability
• Future restorative needs

This careful planning allows us to design a gum line that looks natural, supports long term oral health, and helps you feel more confident when you smile.

Your Treatment Process

The process is typically completed in a single appointment using local anesthesia. Your treatment may include the following steps:

• Smile Evaluation: We carefully evaluate your gum levels, tooth proportions, and overall smile design to plan precise adjustments.‍
• Gum Tissue Reshaping: Excess tissue is gently repositioned or removed to reveal more of your natural tooth structure.‍
• Contour Refinement: The gum line is sculpted to create a smooth, balanced appearance across your smile.‍
• Healing and Stabilization: Your gums gradually heal and adapt to their new position, allowing your smile to settle into its final shape.

Most patients return to normal daily activities quickly while the gums continue healing over the following weeks.
