I Don’t Know Which Procedure Would Be Right For Me? I Have A Gummy Smile And I Would Like This Fixed.

February 10th, 2014
Q.

Hi, I have always disliked my teeth and I have been looking into cosmetic dentisty for a while. The problem I have is that I don’t know procedure it is that I require. My dentist doesn’t undertake cosmetic work but did inform me to look into lingual braces if I wasn’t happy. My top right teeth stick out slightly more than my top left teeth especially the front right tooth and the one next to it. I also have a ‘gummy smile’ which I hate. Not sure if anything can be done about my bottom teeth but when I was younger my dentist removed one of the bottom four smaller teeth, where you should have 4 smaller teeth on the bottom I have three one which is the size of two. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Would the gummy look of my smile be treatable by braces?

November 2nd, 2012
Q.

My teeth aren’t misaligned as such, but my gum line is quite strange so my teeth look shorter at the front and quite large at the back, I think it is due to the shape of my teeth as the ones at the back sort of go in then they push further out at the front. They appear straight, they just make my smile look quite gummy so would you think this would require a brace? I’m not sure, just looking into it before I go ahead and start booking consultations etc as it’s really getting to me now, especially when I look back through old photos. Thanks in advance.
