Hi, I would recommend first findingan orthodontist who can create a specific treatment plan to address youroverbite. Braces are likely the best option. Once the overbite is corrected,then you should contact a gum specialist, called a periodontist, who canexplain the options available for correcting your gummy smile. Braces mayresult in changes to your smile's appearance and it may not be a concern. The bestgummy smile treatment is based on the causes of the condition. Once that'sdetermined, you can choose the option that will achieve the aesthetic outcomeyou want.
there are different ways to correct your gummy smile. you can slightly shorten your teeth while simultaneously elevating the gum line with a lazer. In addition to thisveneers can be applied to change the color and smile profile. A little goes a long way.These are permanent changes so if you are adverse to making permanent changestry using botox above your lip.

You will be more confident with your smile now and later you will have a better chance of saving your teeth. These deep overbites can be destructive when you get older.Hank D. Michael, DMD

I do not recommend reshaping of your front teeth no more than 1 millimeter. If more than that, tooth sensitivity can occur.Your teeth will look good with a little adjustment, but do not forget if tooth is shaven off, that part of the tooth is gone, it needs to be done very little at the time,...
