Are You a Candidate for Gum Surgery?

If you have extra gum tissue that makes your teeth look small or uneven, you may be a candidate for gummy smiles surgery. Often, our advanced lip lowering surgery can easily balance your gums and teeth. In other cases, Dr. Ospina can combine upper lip lowering, crown lengthening and gum contouring to create a more attractive proportion. During your consultation, Dr. Ospina can recommend the most effective treatment plan for a complete smile makeover.

Advanced Waterlase® MD Laser Technology

For advanced gum contouring, Dr. Ospina offers the latest in laser dentistry. Our revolutionary Waterlase® MD laser technology combines laser energy and water to precisely contour the gums without heat or vibrations. The non-invasive nature of this procedure typically means less bleeding, swelling, and post-surgical pain for patients.

The Gummy Smiles Procedure

To help you achieve a proportional smile, Dr. Ospina offers the following gummy smiles surgery options at our Coral Gables practice:

  • Gum Contouring - This gum reshaping technique removes excess gum tissue on the upper and/or lower gums.
  • Crown Lengthening - This technique reshapes the gum to reveal more of your natural teeth.
  • Hypermobile Lip Surgery -This procedure corrects a high lip line and reduces gum visibility.

Using a variety of methods and precision techniques, Dr. Ospina can skillfully contour the gums and surrounding tissue to create a flattering balance and pleasing aesthetic.

Benefits of Gummy Smiles Surgery

Cosmetic gum surgery is a relatively simple procedure that can produce amazing results. Removing excess gum tissue can create a more attractive smile and harmonious proportions. Patients who elect for gummy smiles surgery enjoy increased self-confidence and an improved quality of life.
