This patient was referred to our office for a cosmetic dentistry evaluation from an Oral Surgeon. She wanted to eliminate her “gummy smile†. Every treatment option was explored (plastic surgery, orthodontics, oral surgery, etc) with the patient via consultations with other specialist. The final decision was to seek a cosmetic dentistry solution utilizing gum and bone sculpting to remove the excessive tissue and build out new porcelain restorations that create a better shape for her face. This option was actually the least invasive of any other option. 10 ultra-thin porcelain veneers, laser bone and gum sculpting along with Zoom2 in-office whitening. Her gummy smile was completely eliminated without the need for invasive oral surgery or years in braces. Total treatment time was 4 weeks.
