Gummy Smile is basically the procedure to make the gums appear normal while laughing or talking. If our gums look too much, it will cause our 'tooth length' to appear short and not look good.
The perfect integrity of the teeth and gums is essential for a perfect smile. The size of the gums is as important as the asymmetrical arrangement of the teeth and their whiteness. For a good smile, the gums can be shortened or lengthened if necessary. This process, also called pink aesthetics, is determined by the dentist completely according to the person's mouth, teeth and jaw structure. Although gingival aesthetics is a stand-alone procedure, it can also be performed within the scope of the Smile Design process.
Gummy Smile is basically the procedure to make the gums appear normal while laughing or talking. If our gums look too much, it will cause our 'tooth length' to appear short and not look good.
To fix the gingival smile, a dental operation called “Crown Lengthening” can be performed. This procedure involves reshaping the gumline to reveal more of the teeth and reduce the appearance of the gums when smiling.
Crown Lengthening Procedure Can Be Performed by a Periodontist, Oral Surgeon or General Dentist with Periodontology Training. The procedure is typically done under local anesthesia and can take from 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the number of teeth treated.
The dentist will carefully remove excess gum tissue to reveal more of the tooth and create a more balanced and symmetrical smile. In some cases, the procedure may also involve reshaping the bone around the teeth to improve the overall appearance of the gums.
Gums will need time to heal and the patient will be given instructions on how to care for their gums and teeth during the healing process. The patient should also pay attention to Maintain Good Oral Hygiene and Follow-up Visits with the Dentist for Check-Up.
It is important to remember that the Crown Extension Procedure is a Permanent Solution for Gingival Smile, However, Gums and Teeth may need to be maintained and checked regularly to ensure the best results.
Gummy Smile can be caused by a number of factors, such as genetics, overgrowth of gum tissue, and the position of the upper jaw and teeth.
