Treating a Gummy Smile in Plano, TX

A gummy smile is a common dental concern that many patients deal with. A gummy smile can cause the teeth to appear shorter or smaller than they actually are. For some patients, a gummy smile can be a source of embarrassment which may cause them to feel less confident in their smile. Most patients don’t even realize there is a treatment available to improve the appearance of a gummy smile.

A gummy smile may be the result of:

• An abnormal eruption of teeth
• The way that your upper jaw has developed
• The muscle in your upper lip is hyperactive

At Aesthetic Dentistry Centre, Plano dentist Dr. Mark Sowell offers effective solutions for patients with gummy smiles. Dr. Sowell is a highly trained dentist committed to the highest standard of dental care and helping patients achieve their ideal smile.
