@nicolehippo10: I may not have a super gummy baby teeth looking smile anymore… not sure how to feel about it. Have you had a gingivectomy done? If so are you happy with your new smile? #gingivectomy #dental #smile #teeth #fyp

Dentist here. I’ve had it done with the laser. Great healing. But you will end up with it halfway up your tooth roots to expose teeth in that space. I’d recommend orthodontic care in conjunction with surgery.

Periodontist here. There is a 0% chance this is strictly a gingivectomy = removal of gums only. There is bone that needs to be contoured - 100% things crown lengthening.

Please get a second opinion. Find a very good orthodontist.

1. Please tell me it’s a periodontist you’re seeing. 2. I’m shocked this is only a gingivectomy and not crown lengthening. 3. If dental insurance covers this, I’m buying a lottery ticket 😭🤣

Orthodontist here… this is a life changing makeover surgery. 👏 Hopefully your actually getting esthetic crown lengthening with some bone removal bc this doesn’t look like a gingivectomy alone will last (it can relapse back if bone is not removed and needed). However I also think your upper incisors are over erupted (too low). If after surgery you still think you’re too gummy, I would suggest a consultation with a board certified orthodontist. Good luck!!

I say this with love—Your case is pretty severe. Please go to a periodontist who uses a laser. Vet them. Ask to see their portfolio with before & after pictures.

Have you tried botox to drop your lip down when you smile? I get it and it's enough for me to be happy with my smile.

Yes!! This will look great! Tag team it with botox or like in the upper lip. Ask an injector. It'll help with a gummy smile!

Wouldn’t that be cosmetic though? You don’t medically need it

80% up to your annual max. They need to prove it’s medically necessary and not cosmetic, or

I had to have TADS put in to correct my gummy smile, plus a gingivectomy. Paid full price out of pocket, would 10000% do it again
