Gum Lift

What is a Gum Lift?

A gum lift is a cosmetic procedure that reshapes the gum line to reveal more of your teeth, enhancing the overall appearance of your smile. It’s typically used to correct a gummy smile or asymmetrical gums that can make teeth appear smaller or uneven. The procedure involves removing excess gum tissue, making the teeth look longer and more proportional. Also known as gingivectomy, gingival contouring, gum reshaping, or esthetic crown lengthening, it offers a balanced smile and enhances your tooth structure’s visibility.
