More About Gummy Smile Treatments with Beyond Dental
- At Beyond Skin, we offer a gummy smile treatment that can be completed in under 15 minutes and requires no downtime, with results lasting for months.
- More permanent options include surgery to remove part of the gum, however the gummy smile treatment that we offer is just as effective with less risk.
- Plus, coming back to our clinic every six months to have the treatment topped up will be more of a treat than a chore!
What To Expect From The Treatment
- During a consultation, our clinicians will establish whether you’re suitable for the treatment.
- Then, when you visit us for your gummy smile treatment, one of our medically trained clinicians will inject a small amount of Botox into the space between your upper lip and nose.
- This temporarily freezes the muscles that contract when you smile, meaning your top lip is less elevated so the top gum does not show as severely.
Comfortable Procedure With No Recovery Needed!
You don’t need to be worried about the treatment being painful, as the needle used to administer the Botox is very fine. It will take a couple of days to see an improvement, but this results in a real transformation, significantly improving your confidence and the appearance of your smile. Over the next two weeks, the elevation of the upper lip will decrease, with the full result showing 14 days after your treatment.
What Is A Gummy Smile?
A gummy smile is one that shows more gum than the patient would like. This can be caused by how your teeth have grown in, having too much gum tissue, the length of your upper lip or all three. Having a gummy smile can be a point of insecurity for some people, so they may choose to have gummy smile treatment.

Gummy smile treatment involves injecting a small amount of Botox into the space between the nose and upper lip. This freezes the muscle, meaning the top lip is less elevated, so less gum shows. Having gummy smile treatment can completely transform a person's confidence and give them a smile that they feel confident with.
How Long Does Gummy Smile Treatment Take?
Gummy smile treatment can take under 15 minutes to complete, so you can even come to see us in your lunch break if you want to! Over the next two weeks, the elevation of the upper lip will gradually decrease and you will be able to see the final results. There is absolutely no down time required, which is a significant benefit over surgical gummy smile treatments which are highly invasive and require several weeks to completely heal.
How Long Does Gummy Smile Treatment Last?
The results of your gummy smile treatment will last for at least six months, if not a year. Following your first appointment, you can book in for your next appointment to maintain the results you have achieved.
Is Gummy Smile Treatment Painful?
The needle used to administer the Botox is very fine, so although you may experience slight discomfort, it shouldn’t be painful. When you go to a medical professional for your gummy smile treatment, they will be highly experienced, so it will be as comfortable as possible.
