Should I get botox, laser crown lengthening, or lip lowering for my gummy smile? (Photo)

Asked By:missnewboobie in Nashville, TN

I have a pretty severe gummy smile and was wondering the best method to fix it would be. I've read about botox being able to paralyze the muscles used to smile so less of my gums show, but that's only temporary. I've also read about the laser gum removal/crown lengthening as well as the lip lowering procedure. Which would you recommend for me? Thanks!
