Can anything be done to correct a gummy smile or uneven gumline?
Gum quantity, shape, symmetry and color greatly influence the cosmetics of your smile. Since our lips frame the smile they too play an important role in your smile’s appearance.

Artistic sculpting of gum tissue can make a dramatic improvement in one’s smile. The healing time is very rapid and predictable.
