I have small teeth and a gummy smile what can be done to fix it?

Q. I have small teeth and a gummy smile which I feel quite self concious of. I don’t look good smiling in photos because of this. I’m a happy, smiley person so am enquiring what could be done. I have heard of gum surgery plus veneers, however there doesn’t seem to be any costs available. I’m thinking that if I got the front 4 teeth done this would look ok. What’s your view? And what (rough) costs are involved? Thanks

A.

I am sorry to hear that your teeth are making you reluctant smile, as it sounds like you are a happy person. It is true that veneers can be used to improve the appearnace of your teeth, and hopefully this would encourage you to amile again. The costs for veneers will vary between practices, however you should expect to be paying from £450 – £650 per tooth. I would recommend that you arrange a consultation with a cosmetic dentist, so that you can get an idea of how much this can improve the appearance, hopefully you will be pleasantly suprised.
Many Thanks
