What Causes a Gummy Smile?
Sometimes gum lines are uneven or appear too low. Some people have gums that cover part of their teeth, making it appear as if their teeth look too small. This condition can be genetic or is sometimes caused by certain health problems or taking particular prescription medications.

A person can also show too much gum because they have an overactive muscle in their upper lip. When they smile, the muscle moves the upper lip too much, exposing more gum than is desirable. People with this problem will need a different dental surgery treatment to correct the overactive muscle.

Can an Uneven Gum Line Affect My Dental Health?
Usually, gum contouring is a cosmetic dental procedure and will provide any significant benefits to your oral health. Most people choose this procedure because they want to improve their smile, but some people will have this treatment as part of their periodontal care plan. Gum contouring could be necessary if you need other types of gum surgery, including gum regeneration treatments, gum pocket reduction.

What to Do If Your Gums Are Uneven?
If you feel you show too much gum when you smile, one option is to consider gum contouring. Gum contouring is a treatment that can create an even gum line, ensuring you expose exactly the right amount of tooth and giving you a more attractive smile. Our dentists are experienced in gum contouring and can assess your gum line and your gum health to make sure this treatment is appropriate.

We also offer Zoom!® take-home whitening kits. And we can combine zoom teeth whitening with other cosmetic and restorative options as part of a more comprehensive smile transformation. Indeed, many patients choose to undergo treatment prior to the placement of porcelain veneers so that their veneers can be color-matched to their newly whitened teeth.

Zoom Whitening
Teeth whitening can dramatically brighten teeth that are stained and discolored, and zoom teeth whitening in our Queens dental center is quick and entirely painless. Professional teeth whitening costs are highly affordable. Most importantly, professional teeth whitening is extremely safe. Gentle Dental uses Zoom Whitening, one of the best known and most effective systems available today. With appropriate aftercare, the results can last for years and can be regularly refreshed with top-up treatments.

When to Choose a Teeth Whitening Treatment?
Teeth can discolor for a variety of reasons:

• A love of tea, coffee or red wine, or other highly colored foods and beverages can stain teeth over time.
• Lifestyle habits like smoking or using tobacco products are well known for discoloring teeth.
• Teeth gradually darken with age as tooth enamel thins, exposing more of the dentin underneath.
• Some people naturally have darker colored teeth than others.
• Teeth can appear stained and discolored because of tetracycline use.
• Excess exposure to fluoride can cause dental fluorosis, creating brown spots or lacy white specks on teeth.

We often associate a whiter smile with youthfulness because if you look at a child’s or a younger person’s teeth, they are generally whiter as their tooth enamel is naturally thicker. When tooth enamel is thicker, it masks the natural color of the tooth in the dentin underneath, which is darker. Stained and discolored teeth can be prematurely aging.
