What is a Gummy Smile?
A gummy smile is characterised by the visibility of 2–4 mm or more of gum tissue above the upper teeth when smiling. Contributing factors include:
- A short upper lip.
- Overactive upper lip muscles.
- Excess gum display due to anatomical or muscular reasons.
The ideal aesthetic involves minimal gum exposure—typically no more than 1-2 mm above the upper teeth. While some individuals embrace their gummy smile, others may seek treatment to achieve a balanced and proportional smile.
How Does Gummy Smile Treatment Work?
The treatment involves relaxing the overactive muscles responsible for lifting the upper lip, specifically the levator labii superioris alaeque nasi muscle. Reducing the activity of this muscle allows the upper lip to rest lower, concealing excess gum tissue and creating a more harmonious smile.
Procedure and Recovery
- The procedure takes approximately 15 minutes in a clinical setting.
- Regular activities can be resumed immediately after treatment.
- Results typically begin to show within 2–8 days, with full effects visible at four weeks.
- Treatments generally last 3–4 months, depending on individual factors.
