At An Dental, our dental surgeons are dedicated to providing you with a safe and clinically proven dental implants procedure.
Gummy smile treatment is an option to reduce the excessive display of gums when you smile. We usually consider a smile as gummy if there is more than 4mm of gum tissue exposed.
This treatment is for anyone who feels that they show too much gums when they smile. Having too much gums may cause your smile to appear disproportionate. Some patients complain about a ‘Horsey” appearance and the teeth may also appear too short and square – so you can ask for this treatment option if you feel you belong to the above categories. This should be discussed with your dentist and options can be factored into the overall treatment plan.
Balancing out the esthetics of your smile can boost confidence in some people. Gummy smile treatment can lengthen the teeth and reduce the display of gums. This can make your teeth appear whiter as more of your teeth show!
You will first meet for a consultation with our team of dentists to give you an idea of what can be done.
It all depends on what you would like to achieve. We usually use an instrument to show the patient where we would trim the gums to. We can also “fake” the future length of the teeth by putting tooth coloured material on the gums to allow the patient to visualise how he or she would look with longer teeth and less gums showing. We can also do a digital smile design to show you what you would look like with less gums showing when you smile.
There are many types of gummy smile treatments, depending on the cause of the excessive gum display.
