What Is Gummy Smile Correction?
Gummy smile correction is a cosmetic dental procedure that reduces the appearance of excessive gum tissue when you smile.
A “gummy smile” can have multiple causes, including:
- Overactive upper lip
- Excessive gum overgrowth
- Short upper teeth
- Abnormal tooth eruption
We use advanced dental technologies such as laser gum contouring, crown lengthening, and even lip repositioning when necessary.
These treatments are designed to reshape the gum line, enhance tooth visibility, and create a more balanced, attractive smile.
Benefits of Gummy Smile Correction
✔ Enhanced Smile Aesthetics: Reveal more of your natural teeth and make your smile more beautiful.
✔ Improved Self-Confidence: Feel more comfortable and proud when you smile, speak, or take photos.
✔ Minimal Downtime and Discomfort: Advanced techniques like laser gum surgery allow for faster healing and less irritation.
✔ Personalized Treatment Plans: We adjust every procedure to your facial features, gum line, and personal aesthetic goals.
What to Expect During Your Gummy Smile Correction Surgery
1. Initial Consultation & Assessment
The first step is a comprehensive evaluation at our Hamilton or Columbus office, where we assess your smile, gum line, and overall oral health.
2. Customized Treatment Plan
After a careful examination and listening to your needs, we recommend the best approach—typically laser gum contouring, crown lengthening, or minor surgical correction.
3. Precision Procedure
Using advanced laser technology or gentle surgical techniques, we reshape the gum tissue to create a more proportionate smile, often in a single visit.
4. Comfort-Focused Aftercare
Recovery is typically quick and comfortable. We’ll provide personalized aftercare instructions and schedule follow-ups to ensure proper healing and optimal results.

- Your gums are healthy and free from active periodontal disease

Patient Success Stories
Georgia
October, 2024I had another dentist and hadn’t planned on going anywhere, but they couldn’t help me with implants. So, I called Southeastern Dental Center and when I got here, it was like money was secondary. It was all about me. The confidence, the happiness, the reward at the end – it’s worth it all. It really is.

August, 2024I've been researching my teeth for almost six years. I wanted them done and I started looking for places around Columbus that did implants with good reviews. Southeastern Dental Center was the place. The reviews are awesome, the people are amazing, and they got me in quickly.

August, 2024When you see teeth in a day, you think ‘well, how could that be possible?’ They explained exactly what the procedure was going to be, I came in for my appointment, and the next thing I remember, I woke up the next day with a mouth full of teeth. It was pretty awesome.
