Gum Lift: Patient Case Study

Many people have small looking teeth, or what is called a “gummy smile”. Little do they know that underneath all that gum are big, beautiful and shiny teeth.

A neat procedure performed in our surgery which exposes the teeth that are underneath the gum is called a gum lift.

Healing is normally very quick and you can see from the photos that what is left are big and beautiful teeth. Not to mention a beautiful smile too.

The procedure is not just for people with braces it can be performed on anyone who has a gummy smile and/or little looking teeth.

Whitening the teeth is then available after the procedure to complete your perfect smile!  Give us a call today at FirstBite Dental to see how we can improve your smile.
