Cosmetic Gum Surgery
Surgery can be used to correct a “gummy” smile in which too much of your gums show. The dentist surgically removes some of the gum from the neck of the teeth, which makes your teeth look longer. Cosmetic surgery can also correct a “long-in-the-tooth” smile, which often develops when we get older. This can also result from an improper bite or gum disease. Correcting this can make you appear much younger.
