Q.

Hi Dr Hughes,

I wanted some advice on the best procedure for correcting overexposure of gums (i.e. high lip line). I’ve read that this can either be corrected with gum contouring or via lip repositioning (or a procedure that limits the movement of the upper lip). I’m a lot less keen on the latter option but, in my opinion, I think that I have what might be called a moderate gummy smile.. I don’t know, a dentist would know best. I’d be happy to send you a photo to get your initial advice ahead of booking a consultation..

I wanted to know if you could explain a bit more about the different options and which would be best.

Could you also kindly tell me what the price range is for this?

Lastly, I have been living in London for year but am just about to move to Dubai for a couple of months, I will be back in the summer. If you could let me know how long the waiting list is, if there is one, I’d appreciate it.

Thanks very much for all your help in advance.

Best,

Q.

CAN BOTOX HELP RELIEVE BRUXISM

Q.

Is it true that Transform are going to be offering there own in-house training for Botox. I have heard that you no longer need to be qualified in the medical profession before taking the course? I am very interested to know more details, and would like to know your advise on how best to train to be able to administer botox. I understand the depth and knowledge required.

Thank you

Q.

If I qualify as a Dental Nurse, will this enable me to train in administering Botox & Fillers?

Q.
in addition to gum shaping is there a treatment/procedure to limit the movement of the upper lip area to further reduce the amount of gum shown when smiling? currently, the visible gum area is greater than my teeth when i smile (comparable to a horse) and this has had a serious psychological impact on my life.,

Q.
I’ve recently heard about botox being used to reduce a gummy smile but i can’t seem to find any info from the UK or anywhere in the UK that does it, can you help and also tell me a bit about it… Thanks.
