Get In TouchReveal less gum when you smile
A gummy smile can be a source of embarrassment for many people and can cause a lack of confidence in your smile. But it doesn’t have to be this way. Botox can be used to correct a gummy smile and give you the smile you’ve always wanted. It’s a safe and effective treatment to reduce the amount of gum tissue that is visible when you smile, resulting in a beautiful, more symmetrical facial look.
Botox works by weakening the muscles responsible for raising the upper lip when you smile, thus reducing the appearance of the gums. By using Botox to correct a gummy smile, you can restore your confidence and show off your beautiful smile with pride.
