Gum Recontouring or Porcelain Veneers 2 front teeth? (Photo)

Question

Hi,I would like to do something against my gummy smile. I already did some lip injection and it got much better but still I am not happy that my teeth seem a bit too short. On this photo I‘m not laughing widely but when I really laugh you can see my gummy smile. What bothers me are my 2 front teeths I don‘t know if I should do only Gum Recontouring and if so is it better with laser? Or if this is not possible to do only 2 Veeners for my front teeth. Can anyone get done Gum Recontouring or not?

Gum recontouring is a great option for short teeth! It is simple and recovery is very quick. I do not use a laser and my patients say they feel completely fine the next day. I know you said you had lip injections but you could also consider botox (lip flip) to stop the upper lip from going too high. Veneers may be an option or needed with the gum recontouring. Best of luck!

first of all lip injection worked well i guess the counturing looks superb for the lips!! but in your case the reason your teeth looks small is because you have too much soft tissue around the teeth,, the pink aesthetic or recotouring of the gum is very easy by the help of laser and after we remove 1mm of the soft tissue your teeth looks biggerbut if only you can add laminate veneers to the teeth this recontouring will last for everlaminate veneers are made with minimum loss from teeth surface (0,5mm max) as non prep laminateshere is our clinic page and you can see lots of brilliant cases
