Gummy Smile Transformation
Smile of the Month

September 2020

When Maria came to see Dr. Mohr, she wasn’t just unhappy with her teeth, but her gums as well! She had a “gummy” smile that looked out of proportion. You may not have noticed it before, but typically, the most attractive smiles show almost no gum tissue. Look up your favorite celebrity right now, and you’ll quickly see what we’re talking about. To complicate matters for Maria, she also had some stained veneers that were definitely at the end of their lifespan.

After giving her an exam and discussing her goals, Dr. Mohr determined that multiple procedures working seamlessly together would be needed to achieve the result Maria desired. He put together a personalized plan and went over each step with her beforehand so she knew exactly what to expect throughout the process. In the end, Maria had her teeth whitened, customized veneers and porcelain crowns placed, and she also underwent minor gum surgery to give her that perfectly balanced look.

Maria can’t say enough positive things about her time with Dr. Mohr:

“I went to Dr. Mohr's office with the hopes of changing a smile I was unhappy with and very self-conscious about. I was a difficult case with a gummy smile and 25-year-old worn veneers. With whitening, minor gum surgery and beautiful, natural-looking new veneers, I am finally able to smile confidently again. His planning and artistry exceeded my expectations. I am so happy to be wearing lipstick again! Thank you to Dr. Mohr and his wonderful staff for a beautiful experience from start to finish!”
