Gummy Smile
Overview
Although prominent gums are completely harmless, a gummy smile can make you feel self-conscious and can affect how you feel when you see photos of yourself. It has been shown that a smile will usually be perceived as gummy when four millimetres of gum tissue shows.
What causes a gummy smile?
There are a few causes for gummy smiles such as:
- Improperly erupted teeth
- A hyperactive lip that looks normal when the face is at rest but lifts too much when smiling
- A short upper lip
- Worn teeth
- An overgrowth of the upper jaw
What are some ways to reduce the appearance and formation of a gummy smile?
Gummy smiles can be caused by various factors, such as a hyperactive lip or an overgrowth of the upper jaw. If your gummy smile is caused by a hyperactive lip, there are options such as neuromodulators that can be injected into the muscles of the upper lip to relax the muscles and prevent the lip from overreacting when smiling.
This can help to lower the lip and cover the gums, giving you a brighter, more confident smile. If the cause of your gummy smile requires more extensive treatment, such as dental surgery, there are options available to help fix your smile and restore your confidence. It is important to consult with a dental or medical professional to determine the most appropriate treatment for your specific needs and goals.
