Botox

More balance between lips, teeth and gums

A small change in upper-lip movement can affect the overall appearance of your smile. For a muscle-related gummy smile, Botox can limit how far the lip lifts so that less gum is visible.

We assess your smile in motion and identify what causes the gum display. Treatment may be relevant for some causes, while others call for a different approach.

What happens during treatment?

We first assess lip movement and the relationship between your lip, teeth and gums. We discuss whether muscle activity is the cause and whether Botox is relevant.

Treatment involves small injections into selected muscles. We explain possible temporary changes in lip function and when to review your smile.

Questions about the treatment

Learn about the options, process and important considerations.

Does Botox work for every gummy smile?

No. Gum display can relate to lip movement, teeth or jaw shape. Botox affects muscles and does not change teeth or bones.

Is gummy smile treatment the same as a lip flip?

No. Gummy smile treatment aims to reduce how far the upper lip lifts, while a lip flip aims to make more of the lip visible.

Can my lip feel different afterwards?

Yes. Temporary weakness or changes in movement around the mouth can occur. We discuss risks and aftercare before treatment.

When will I see a result, and how long will it last?

A visible result can typically be expected after 10–14 days, with effects lasting around 3–4 months. The result is normally reviewed after about 14 days. Muscle activity, the treated area and your response can affect both the change and its duration.
