Gum-Lifts Brisbane

A Gum Lift involves lifting the height of the gums.

A Gum Lift is a highly effective Cosmetic Dental procedure designed to reshape and lift the height of your gums. This treatment is ideal for those who have a gummy smile or a disproportionate gum-to-tooth ratio. A Gum Lift addresses the excess growth of gum tissue, reshaping the gumline and revealing more of the tooth structure.

Often combined with treatments like Porcelain Veneers, this procedure creates a harmonious, balanced smile, especially for individuals who feel their smile appears too “gummy” or their teeth seem short. 

PERFECT YOUR SMILE

What is a Gum Lift?

A Gum Lift is a Cosmetic Dental procedure that adjusts the gumline to expose more of your healthy teeth, creating a more attractive and balanced smile. This procedure involves the removal of excess gum tissue to transform square teeth into a more naturally shaped rectangular form. By lifting and reshaping the gums, the Gum Lift not only enhances your smile but also contributes to the overall aesthetics of your face. 

This treatment is especially useful for gummy smile reduction and is often performed alongside Porcelain Veneers for a complete smile makeover. The process reveals the hidden tooth structure, providing a longer, more proportional appearance to the teeth. Additionally, the Gum Lift adjusts the gum-to-tooth ratio, helping to achieve a smile that is well-balanced and proportionate. 

How Does the Gum Lift Procedure Work?

The Gum Lift procedure is minimally invasive and is typically performed under local anaesthesia to ensure a pain-free experience. During the treatment, the gums are numbed, and a precise technique is used to reshape the gumline and remove any excess tissue. Depending on your individual needs, the procedure may involve the use of an Electrosurgical Unit, Laser, or a Micro-surgical Blade. These advanced tools provide precision in sculpting the gums, ensuring that the results are natural and aesthetically pleasing. 

In some cases, sutures may be placed to assist in the healing process. Most patients experience a relatively quick recovery, with the gums healing to a natural appearance within 1-2 weeks. The procedure is quick, effective, and minimally invasive and patients are typically able to return to their normal activities soon after. 

Gum Lift for Gummy Smile Reduction

For individuals with a gummy smile, the gums can often overpower the teeth when smiling, resulting in an imbalanced appearance. A gummy smile is typically characterised by short, square teeth with excessive upper gums showing. This imbalance may make people feel self-conscious about their smiles. A Gum Lift can correct this issue by reducing the amount of gum visible during a smile, creating a more aesthetically pleasing tooth and gum display. 

By contouring the gumline and reshaping the tissue around the teeth, the procedure helps to lengthen the teeth and restore a more natural tooth-to-gum ratio. The result is a more harmonious and balanced smile that enhances the overall appearance of your face. After the procedure, you will notice a smoother, more proportionate gum line that complements the natural beauty of your teeth. 

 

Gum Lift Results: What to Expect

The results of a Gum Lift are immediate and transformative. After the procedure, you will experience a noticeable difference in the length of your teeth and the overall symmetry of your smile. The most significant change will be a reduced gum display when you smile, giving your teeth a more elongated and natural appearance. The reshaped gumline enhances the aesthetics of the smile by creating a rectangular tooth shape, which is often considered the most desirable and youthful look. 

Patients who undergo a Gum Lift procedure can expect their smile to look significantly more balanced, with a natural, youthful appearance. This improvement is often accompanied by an increase in self-confidence, as patients feel more comfortable showing their smile in photos or during social interactions. For those looking to enhance their smile further, the Gum Lift can be combined with other Cosmetic Dental treatments like Porcelain Veneers, which help to create a flawless smile with uniform teeth and improved overall appearance.
