about Gummy smile

The correction of the "gingival smile" or the excessive exposure of the gingival tissue when smiling is an aesthetic procedure that is carried out with the help of botulinum toxin injections. A gummy smile can occur for a number of reasons, including enlarged gum tissue, a short upper lip, or overgrowth of the upper jaw. This procedure targets the muscles between the nose and mouth to limit the lifting of the upper lip so that the gum is less exposed.
