Gummy smile
Cosmetic facial surgery
What is a gummy smile?
A gummy smile occurs when the gums are exposed more than normal, exceeding 3 mm, which can be unattractive.
Why does a gummy smile occur?
This type of smile can be caused by a variety of factors, such as a long face due to excess jawbone, poorly positioned teeth, a short lip, excess gum tissue, or hyperfunction of the facial muscles involved in smiling.
