GUM AESTHETICS

Besides white aligned teeth, gums are equally important to create a beautiful smile. Therefore, in dentistry, “pink aesthetics” or “gum aesthetics” always comes with “white aesthetics”, in order to achieve the most perfect in treatment.

What are the common gum problems that lack aesthetics?

Melanin-infected gums:

Melanin is a pigment found in the skin and mucosa, making the skin and mucosa darker. Due to the condition, some people have a lot of melanin in their gums, turning their gums color from ruddy to dark brown. This is completely not a pathology, but just a natural expression of the body. However, it causes a lack of aesthetics, making the sufferer lose confidence when laughing.

Reveal the gums when smiling:

Also known as a low laugh line. A smile is considered “ideal” when the revealed gums is about 1-2mm. A smile that shows too much gums will make you feel inelegant.

Asymmetrical smiling line:

The smiling line is the line drawn by the upper lip when smiling. A good smile will make the smiling line symmetrical, and the smile line in women is often more curved as an expression of femininity.

Low labial frenum:

The labial frenum is the part that attaches to the gum of the upper lip. This part of the mouth sticks lowly to the incisors, making the smile not “maximally open”, and causes the gap-toothed upper front teeth.
