Gum Lift San Francisco | ME Dental SF

Gum lift

A gum lift is a very minimally invasive procedure. In this procedure, Dr. Moran uses a laser to reshape the gum to the ideal esthetic position. Another instrument is then used to carve the bone around the tooth to ensure the gum doesn’t grow back – ensuring a lasting treatment.

Enhance your smile instantly with a gum lift

Dr. Moran absolutely loves performing gum lifts for patients as doing a gum lift can drastically improve a patient’s smile, and ultimately, improve their confidence and their lives.
Showing some gum when smiling is normal and makes your smile youthful. However, some patients show an excessive amount of gum when they smile and can overpower the teeth and cause a “gummy smile”. Depending on the case and the cause of a gummy smile, many gummy smiles can be fixed with a procedure called crown lengthening, or a “gum lift”.  
At ME Dental, Dr. Olivia Moran and our experienced team specialize in customized gum lift procedures tailored to your unique needs. Using advanced techniques and technology, we ensure a safe, comfortable experience with precise results. Whether you’re looking to improve aesthetics or correct an uneven gum line, we’re here to guide you every step of the way. Let us help you achieve the beautifully balanced smile you deserve.

Frequently asked questions

Will a gum lift hurt?
Some patients have a gummy smile because their upper lip moves up excessively when they smile. This will cause more gum to show. Although a gum lift might help, the best solution for a case like this is for a small amount of botox to prevent the upper lip from moving so much.
How long does the procedure take?
Some patients have a gummy smile because their upper lip moves up excessively when they smile. This will cause more gum to show. Although a gum lift might help, the best solution for a case like this is for a small amount of botox to prevent the upper lip from moving so much.
Are there any food or activities restrictions after the procedure?
No. You will just want to avoid hard crackers or chips in the first 24 hours when the gums are still tender.
