Do you feel like too much of your gums show when you smile? A “gummy smile” can make some people feel self-conscious, even if their teeth are healthy and straight. At Peak Perio, we specialize in transforming smiles with expert gum treatments that bring out the beauty of your teeth and boost your confidence.
What Is a Gummy Smile?
A gummy smile happens when excess gum tissue covers too much of your teeth, making them appear shorter. This can result from genetics, improper tooth eruption, or other factors. The good news? It’s treatable with advanced periodontal procedures designed to create a balanced, natural-looking smile.
Treatment Options for a Gummy Smile
At Peak Perio, we offer several effective solutions to reshape and contour your gum line:
- Gingivectomy: Removes excess gum tissue to reveal more of your teeth.
- Gum Contouring: Shapes your gum line for a more even and aesthetically pleasing appearance.
- Gum Reshaping: Adjusts the position and contour of your gums for improved balance.
- Crown Lengthening: Exposes more of your tooth by removing tissue and sometimes bone, ideal for both cosmetic and restorative needs.
Each procedure is tailored to your unique smile goals, ensuring natural and harmonious results.
