Gummy Smile Treatment with Lasting Results

Improve the overall aesthetics of your gummy smile with lip repositioning, or gummy smile, treatment.

Expert Gummy Smile Treatment for Renewed Confidence

Gummy smile treatment addresses the appearance of excess gum tissue when smiling, which can affect self-confidence. At Elite Smiles, Dr. Meden offers permanent solutions through a minimally invasive lip repositioning surgery. This procedure adjusts the position of the upper lip to reduce gum exposure and sculpts the gingival tissue for a more balanced, aesthetic smile.

Unlike temporary solutions like Botox or fillers, Dr. Meden’s approach provides lasting, natural-looking results with minimal recovery time​. Dr. Meden has performed hundreds of these procedures and develops a unique treatment plan for each patient, ensuring a personalized approach to deliver the best results based on individual needs.

What is a “gummy smile?”

Excessive gingival display, or “gummy smile,” can affect the aesthetics of your smile and dampen your confidence. It has a variety of causes, but it can be treated and improved. A “gummy smile” is marked by the excessive showing of gums when smiling and impacts the proportions of your smile.

Benefits of Lip Repositioning

Gummy smile treatment, also known as lip repositioning, is a minimally invasive procedure with maximum results. It both enhances the aesthetics of your smile and improves oral health by protecting your gums. It is a permanent solution, versus other popular temporary treatments such as Botox and fillers.
