Want to raise the height of my front gumline. Am I candidate for gingivectomy? (photos)

Question

I want to raise the height of my four front teeth's gumline by about 2mm to match the height of my canines. I marked the ideal height for me in white lines in the photo. Am I a candidate?

Hello, the appearance of a gummy smile can be treated with a gum lift. Based on the picture, you are a good candidate for this procedure. This is my personal opinion and not a diagnosis or medical advice.
