9.Correct a Gummy Smile
The fix could be a surgery called “crown lengthening.” Your periodontist, a specialist in gums, will numb your mouth. Then they cut away extra gum tissue to expose the full length of your front teeth.
The surgery may only take an hour or less. How long it takes for you to recover depends on how much work was done.
10.Braces for Beauty
They’re not just for kids. Braces can straighten your crooked teeth and close gaps in your smile.
They can be made with ceramic, tooth-colored brackets or even clear plastic. In some cases, you may need to wear them for only 6 to 12 months.
