Gummy Smile Enhancement
Smiles are beautiful and make people feel happy, but some people feel they need to hide their smile because they feel too much gum area is exposed in proportion to their teeth, which may otherwise be completley healthy and bright.
For a few people with severe gummy smiles where almost all of the teeth are covered by the gums there can also be gum problems or pain when attempting to chew some foods.
Radiography and Dental Laser Surgery
Through or modern laser treatments we can enhance most 'gummy smiles' to a beatiful and even smile. The treatment known as laser Gingivectomy or Radiosurgery usually requires only a small amount of gum tissue be removed using a painless and hygeinic Dental Laser. The process is highly recommended by our dental experts and heals in only one to two weeks requiring no sutures.
Enhancement and Treatment of Severe Gum Overgrowth
For our patients with more severe gum overgrowth problems we offer a specialist multi-treatment during which the gum surface is actually lifted from the tooth area during a pain free surgical procedure and placed in a more natural position to reveal more of the patients tooth area.
Seven to ten days, when a further alignment may be required to shape the gum-line perfectly and symmetrically. After four to five weeks after healing, the smile may be enhanced further by fitting of our ultra thin dental veneers to produce a truly beautiful and natural smile.
