GUMMY SMILE CORRECTION
A gummy smile is one of the reasons why people are insecure to show off their pearly whites. When the gum tissues are very visible (around 3 mm of gum tissue), the teeth appear small and lose their aesthetic appeal.
Gummy smiles happen when the upper teeth are overshadowed by the gums. Excessive gingival display happens when the upper jaw bone is larger than the lower part, making the upper lip appear stretched.
Our specialist periodontists at Richmond Dental Clinic offers a safe and effective gummy smile treatment using the latest technology. See the dramatic change in your smile that will restore your confidence and self-esteem.
What causes a gummy smile?
Gummy smile, whether mild or severe, can be caused by several factors such as:
- Genetics
- Hyperactive muscles in the upper lip pull the lip upward
- Excess bone formation or above the teeth
- Gum tissues failed to recede after abnormal eruption of permanent teeth
- Too much bulging of the upper jaw within the gum tissue
- Certain prescription medicines
From dental implants to orthodontic braces and many other advanced treatments, Richmond Dental Clinic offers a wide variety of options to help you maintain a beautiful, healthy smile.
