Gummy Smiles / Lip Lowering

If you suffer from a gummy smile and are bothered by the way it looks, you don't have to live with it any longer! There are three main treatment options available to correct a gummy smile: gingivectomy, crown lengthening surgery, and lip lowering surgery. The method used to treat your gummy smile will be determined by an experienced surgeon who is familiar with gummy smile correction. The treatment modality used is chosen based on the amount of excess gum tissue displayed when you smile, your underlying skeletal anatomy, and the mobility of your upper lip.
The Kurpis Center for Advanced Dentistry is a multi-disciplinary group of general dentists and specialists who practice a "team" approach when caring for your dental health. Our center encompasses all aspects of dentistry, with an emphasis on diagnosis, prevention, surgery, cosmetics, and advanced restorative techniques.

    I think the young lady had tremendous results and she looks great; however, I think it is downright rude to suggest that anyone approach someone with a gummy smile and ask them if they are confident with their smile. That is being presumptuous and could possibly cause someone that is confident with their gummy smile to lose that confidence. There are many people that are quite attractive and have the money to fix their smiles, but are happy with them. Check out some of these people: Estella Warren, Nicole Kidman (although she has had her teeth fixed, appears to still have a gummy smile), Anna Nicole, Andie MacDowell (take a look at her laughing), Natasha Alam, etc. I wouldn't discourage people from having a procedure like this, but I wouldn't encourage those that have to approach others about their own smile. That's just rude.

    I'm sorry, Nathan. People are cruel. It was probably someone that has their own flaws and no confidence in themselves. I guess pointing out things about other people makes them feel better about themselves.

    Dr Kurpis.I am considering getting the same procedure done on my smile. You just said that you don't cut into the musclesin the lip but how is the lip movement limited? Will this feel unnatural? Will I no longer be able to make some facial expressions with my mouth? Will this effect even kissing? I know these questions seem odd, but I am trying to ease my mind about getting this procedure. I had a gummy smile my whole life and I want a change. Please answer soon. Thank you. :)
