Lip Switch

Case #1
This 27 year old female presented to our office with the chief complaint that she did not like her "gummy smile". She reports that she has been bothered by the excessive amount of gum tissue her whole life. She indicates that she is pleased with the appearance of her teeth, but desires to show less gum tissue when she smiles, laughs and speaks. After discussing the various options available to her, she has elected to proceed with a "lip repositioning procedure" that will minimize that amount of gum tissue displayed. The results seen here are one week following the procedure.
