Frequently Asked Questions

Why do some people have gummy smiles?

Some patients have an overactive muscle in their upper lip or excessive gum tissue, causing their gums to show more when they smile.

Is there a non-surgical fix for a gummy smile?

Yes! Treatments like Botox injections can relax the muscles that elevate the upper lip, reducing gum exposure.

Do genetics play a role in having a gummy smile?

Definitely! Genetics can influence the size and shape of your lips and gums, affecting your smile.

Can braces fix a gummy smile?

No, not usually. The reason your gums are visible when smiling is due to an overactive muscle rather than the teeth themselves.

Does age affect a gummy smile?

It can! As you age, changes in facial structure and muscle mass might alter the appearance of your smile, including gum exposure.

Are there exercises to reduce a gummy smile?

Not really! Unlike some facial muscles, the ones responsible for lip elevation aren’t easily changed through exercises.

Will fixing a gummy smile change the way I speak?

No, this procedure will have no impact on the way that you speak.
