What Is a Gummy Smile?

A gummy smile is a smile that reveals an excessive amount of gum tissue above the upper teeth. This can make teeth look short or disproportionate.

What Are the Causes of a Gummy Smile?

Genetics: Some people naturally have a higher lip line that exposes more gum.

Hyperactive lip muscles: When smiling, overactive muscles can pull the lip up too high.

Excessive gum tissue: Too much gum tissue can cover more of the tooth surface.

Corrective Treatment

Botox: Botox injections can relax hyperactive lip muscles, reducing the amount of gum tissue displayed when smiling.
