Although it is not a true clinical problem, it can negatively affect the self-esteem of the sufferer, making the smile less harmonious and creating discomfort in daily life. Fortunately, there are several <strong>effective beauty treatments<\/strong> to correct this imperfection and restore naturalness to the smile.<\/p>\n<h2>What is gingival smile<\/h2>\n<p>A gingival smile is when more than 3 millimeters of gingiva are visible above the teeth during smiling. There can be many causes: a <strong>excessive gum growth<\/strong>, a <strong>high position of the upper lip<\/strong>, excessive activity of the lip elevator muscles or, in some cases, a skeletal abnormality of the jaw.<\/p>\n<p>It is important to distinguish between different causes to choose the <strong>most suitable treatment<\/strong>, which is why a specialist evaluation at a qualified dental clinic is always recommended as a <strong>Smile Provider<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2>Treatments to correct the gingival smile<\/h2>\n<p>Gingival smile correction can be done through different techniques, depending on the origin of the problem. The most common treatments include:<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. Gingival surgery (gingivoplasty or gingivectomy).<\/strong><br \/>\nWhen the gingiva abnormally covers the teeth, controlled removal of excess gum tissue can be performed. This is a minimally invasive treatment that immediately improves smile aesthetics by reducing gum exposure and making teeth visually longer and more proportionate.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Botulinum toxin treatment<\/strong><br \/>\nIf the cause of the gummy smile is excessive contraction of the upper lip muscles, you can use <strong>botox injections<\/strong> To temporarily relax the muscles. This causes the lip to lift less during smiling, partially covering the gingiva. The effect is reversible and lasts an average of 4 to 6 months.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Aesthetic orthodontics<\/strong><br \/>\nIn some cases, gingival smiling is related to incorrect tooth or jaw position. Through a <strong>personalized orthodontic treatment<\/strong>, such as the use of clear aligners, it is possible to change the position of teeth and improve smile aesthetics in a progressive way.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. Orthognathic surgery<\/strong><br \/>\nWhen the problem is skeletal (overgrowth of the upper jaw), more complex surgery can be performed to reposition the jawbone. This option is reserved for the most severe cases and is always evaluated with a multidisciplinary approach.<\/p>\n<h2>Why rely on Smile Provider<\/h2>\n<p>Addressing an imperfection such as gum disease requires expertise, experience, and state-of-the-art technology.
