Gummy Smile Correction
What is Gummy Smile Correction with Botox?
A gummy smile occurs when a person’s upper gums are more visible than usual when they smile, often due to an overactive upper lip muscle. This can make the smile appear uneven or less aesthetically pleasing, affecting overall confidence. Gummy smile correction with Botox is a non-surgical treatment that involves injecting Botox into the muscles responsible for lifting the upper lip too much, effectively reducing the amount of gum exposure when smiling. This quick, safe, and minimally invasive procedure helps create a more balanced, natural-looking smile and boosts self-esteem.
By relaxing these muscles, Botox can create a more balanced and harmonious smile, giving you the confidence to show off your smile without worrying about excessive gum visibility.

How Does Botox Work for Gummy Smile Correction?
The muscles responsible for elevating the upper lip too much when smiling are called the levator labii muscles. Botox works by relaxing these muscles, reducing their ability to contract and lift the lip excessively.
Step-by-Step Process:
1. Consultation
- Dr. Dineli will discuss your goals and assess the extent of your gummy smile.
- You will receive a personalized treatment plan based on your facial anatomy and desired outcome.
2. The Procedure
- Botox is injected into the levator labii muscles with a fine needle.
- The treatment typically takes 10-15 minutes, and there’s minimal discomfort.
3. Results
- You’ll begin to notice a reduction in gum exposure within 2-3 days.
- Full results will appear in about 1-2 weeks, giving you a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing smile.
