Professional Gummy Smile Treatment in Melbourne

Gummy smile treatment in Melbourne helps deal with your adverse dental condition and offers a beautiful smile. A Gummy Smile is a condition where the upper teeth appear short due to excessive gum tissue. Your teeth may be of the proper length but appear smaller than they should because they are covered by excessive gum tissue.

At Malvern Smile Studio, we eliminate excess gum tissue to offer a brand new smile. Our patients choose to take advantage of this procedure as it offers a beautiful, attractive smile with little or no pain. Our experts often use advanced technology and methods to remove excess gum tissue delicately. Thus, we provide a better balance and symmetry between teeth and gums.

What Causes Gummy Smile?

An expert gummy smile treatment offers you a beautiful smile that signals social connection and joy. Several reasons contribute to a gummy smile. Some of them are:

  • Your upper lip could be higher than normal while smiling or talking, exposing more of your gums. When your upper lip to too short, it exposes more of your upper gums.
  • The size and position of your upper jaw bone could cause your gummy smile, which calls for an expert gummy smile in Melbourne.
  • Abnormal teeth growth in your upper jaw could have resulted in excessive gum tissue covering your teeth. You could have gingival hypertrophy, which results in enlarged gums.
  • Your gummy smile could be due to a vertical maxillary excess condition, which creates a bulge in your gums.

Treatments for a Gummy Smile

Expert dentists are the only professionals who can correctly determine the cause of your gummy smile in Melbourne. After that, they decide on the treatment.

The treatment usually includes:

  • Lip Re-positioning — This procedure involves surgically removing a section of the gum tissue under the upper lip. Thereafter, getting them stitched results in a shorter lip that covers the gums and changes your gummy smile.
  • Orthodontics — It can be an effective treatment if the gummy smile occurs due to a bad bite. Expert dental professionals fix gummy smile, sometimes suggest clear aligners, and conventional braces at other times. Aligners or braces help re-align the bite into a correct position or reduce the amount of gum tissue visible.
  • Scaling — Teeth scaling is a simple treatment that experts use to cure the gummy smile occurring due to infected or inflamed gums.
  • Crowns or veneers are often used to make the teeth appear longer. It is essentially a situation for a gummy smile caused by the wear and tear of the teeth.

Frequently Asked Questions.

A perfect smile is where the upper lip sits just above the top of the teeth. However, in the case of a gummy smile, a larger than average amount of gum tissue is exposed, and the appearance is a noticeably disproportionate gum-to-tooth ratio.

Dental professionals can help you get a more attractive and balanced smile with expert corrective measures. Gum contouring, lip lowering, and crown lengthening are the most common measures.

The procedure involves minimal downtime. The upper lip feels tight for the utmost the initial two weeks after surgery. Rarely do people experience complications or discomfort.

The best treatment for a gummy smile essentially depends on specific situations. Combining gummy smile treatment with excessive gum tissue removal or crown lengthening often helps the situation. Aesthetic gum bleaching is yet another aspect.

I cannot thank Dr Saloni enough I almost went to her in a fire fighting situation and being someone who has never had a root canal before I was so stressed but she made me feel at ease in no time . Also she is very kind and very good at what she does and hence can completely trust her . Very professional and great team !

Saloni has been our dentist for years. She's kind, gentle, and patient. Going to the dentist isn't as scary with Saloni and the friendly staff here 😊.

It had been over a year since my last visit to the dentist and was nervous coming in for a checkup and clean (probably because I haven’t been flossing). The checkup was really thorough and Dr Saloni made me feel at ease. Usually you get a talking down from a dentist for not doing this or that, but Dr Saloni was kind and empathetic. And told me some useful and practical strategies that have helped my teeth in better shape (and colour!)

My experience with Malvern Smile Studio was very pleasant. From booking the appointment till my visit, everything was seamless. I had a minor tooth cavity for which another dentist quoted me more than double to what I was charged at Malvern Smile Studio. Dr. Saloni was quick, efficient and very friendly. Being someone who is not very comfortable with dentists, I found them trustworthy and very professional. Definitely recommend :)
