A gummy smile makeover is designed to balance your teeth and gums so your smile looks clean, confident, and natural. If you feel your teeth are short or your gums show too much when you smile, this treatment can give you the perfect proportion without looking fake.
What is a gummy smile makeover
This procedure reshapes or adjusts the gum line to create a more even, aesthetically pleasing smile. It may involve minor gum contouring, laser treatment, or even a combination with veneers to make teeth appear longer and more symmetrical.
Who is a candidate
People who feel their gums cover too much of their teeth or have uneven gum lines are good candidates. Healthy gums and teeth are important, and your dentist will evaluate your bite and facial proportions before planning the makeover.
How it works
The process starts with a consultation and smile analysis. Using modern imaging, your dentist designs the ideal gum-to-tooth ratio. Then, treatment can include:
- Laser gum reshaping for precision and minimal bleeding
- Minor crown lengthening for visible teeth
- Veneers or crowns for additional cosmetic adjustments
Most procedures are quick, comfortable, and recovery is fast.

Recovery and aftercare
Most patients experience mild sensitivity or swelling for a few days. Following post-treatment instructions and maintaining good oral hygiene ensures long-lasting results.
