Concern Introduction

Understanding Gummy Smile

A gummy smile usually happens when the muscle that lifts the upper lip is very strong, so the lip rises high and exposes the gum.

A few precise units of toxin soften that lift, so your smile shows more teeth and less gum while still looking natural.

Common Causes

01
A strong upper-lip elevator muscle
02
A short upper lip
03
Tooth and gum proportions
