What is a "Gummy Smile"?

A smile is classified as "gummy" when it reveals an excessive amount of gum tissue, measuring 3 mm or greater. This aesthetic issue is more prevalent among women, particularly those in their 20s and 30s. Typically, a gummy smile is believed to be influenced by genetic factors, although other elements may also contribute. These factors encompass:
  • Abnormal tooth eruption
  • Improper bite
  • Muscle-related problems
  • Overactive upper lip
