Dulles Dental Group: New Gummy Smile Treatment by Dulles Dental Group

Dulles Dental Group now offers new gummy smile treatments. Simply by visiting Dulles Dental Group you will recieve confirmation and treatment options.

    CENTREVILLE, VA, August 07, 2011 /Health and Fitness PR News/ -- Dulles Dental Group notes that if you think you have a gummy smile, visit your dentist for confirmation and treatment options. Your dentist will examine your mouth, teeth and gums to determine the extent of the excessive gingival display and any possible causes. Dulles Dental Group goes on to explain that this examination may involve conventional and/or digital impressions of your teeth and gums. You may also need X-ray imaging so that the tooth roots and jaw bone can be carefully examined.

Dulles Dental Group explains that if you suffer from a severe gummy smile, your dentist may refer you to a specialist, like a periodontist, orthodontist or an oral surgeon. Dulles Dental Group has found, depending on the nature of your specific clinical condition, treatment for your gummy smile could include one or more of the following:

• Same-day laser treatments (in minor cases).
• Surgical lip repositioning.
• Orthodontics (braces) to move the teeth into more suitable positions.
• Surgical Sculpting of the gingival tissues and bone to create healthier and more attractive looking gum contours.
• Maxillofacial surgery to reposition the bone.

For example, Dulles Dental Group has learned that according to the American Academy of Periodontology, a periodontist - a dentist specializing in the gums, soft tissues and other structures supporting the teeth - can perform a "crown lengthening" procedure to correct the appearance of a gummy smile. During this procedure, the periodontist will remove the excess gum tissue - and possibly bone - in order to expose more of the tooth's surface. Dulles Dental Group highlights that the sculpting procedure can be performed on one or more teeth to create an even gum line or a more natural looking smile.

Gummy smile sufferers see more of their teeth when they smile and less of their gums as a result.

Dulles Dental Group recalls that the American Academy of Periodontology states that the benefits of crown lengthening procedures include increased comfort and confidence when smiling, eating and speaking, as well as improved periodontal (gum tissue) health.

Dulles Dental Group is continuing to help many clients achieve a happier healthier smile.
