Is Gummy Smile Surgery Permanent? How to Maintain Your Results
A gummy smile, also known as excessive gingival display, occurs when a significant portion of the gums is visible when smiling. While this condition is typically harmless, many individuals seek treatment to enhance their smile’s appearance.

However, a common question patients have is whether the results of gummy smile surgery are permanent and what steps they can take to maintain their new smile.

Dental implants are an excellent solution for replacing missing teeth, offering durability, functionality, and a natural look.
