Gummy Smile
Does your smile show more gum than you would like? A gummy smile is more common than many think — and can be corrected gently with a few units of Botox.
Smile without thinking about it
A gummy smile means a large portion of the gums is exposed when smiling. Entirely harmless, but for many it is enough to make the smile feel uncomfortable and held back in photos and social situations.
A small adjustment, a big difference
Botox has proven highly effective against gummy smile. The treatment reduces the activity of the muscle that lifts the upper lip when you smile — the lip then rests slightly lower and the amount of visible gum decreases, while the smile keeps its warmth and naturalness.
The treatment takes only minutes, is virtually painless and gives many a real boost in confidence.
