Minor Gummy Smile

A Major gummy smile is a condition in which the amount of gum tissue is excessive and shows a disproportionate gum-to-tooth ratio. Highly exposed gum tissue makes the smile unpleasant, and has a psychological impact on a patient. Indeed, gummy smile is a common aesthetic problem that often causes lack of self esteem and embarrassment when we cannot underestimate the importance of our looks and smile in everyday life. In fact, self-confidence is often the key for success.

What Causes Gummy Smile:
  • Excessive overgrowth of gum tissue due to medications or orthodontic treatment or abnormal eruption of the teeth.
  • The Muscle of the upper lip is hyperactive
  • Excessive growth of the Maxillary Jaw bone
  • Inflammation of the gum due to gum disease or bad restoration
  • Congenital Gingival enlargement


  • Today, gummy smile is a problem of the past: It can be fixed through various treatments adapted to specific needs.

    The smile line or aesthetic zone the teeth that are showing when you are smiling is determined by several factors, including:

  • The shape and size of your lips.
  • Your facial muscles.
  • The shape and size of your teeth.
  • Your gum tissue.

  • The optimal smile line appearance should reveal the least amount of gum tissue possible. Gum tissue visible in the smile line should have balanced, even contours that are in harmony with the upper lip. It is for this reason that many people with a gummy smile or excessive gingival display feel their smile to be unattractive, oftentimes feeling reluctant to smile at all. However, depending on the factors causing a gummy smile, more serious underlying dental conditions could be present. For example, if you have a gummy smile caused as a result of how the teeth erupted and how the jaw developed, you may also have an uncomfortable or improper bite that could ultimately affect your long-term oral health.
