He is highly qualified and I recommend him without hesitation. He and his office staff are professional, available and eager to make your experience a positive one.

What Causes a Gummy Smile?
A gummy smile often results from hyperactive muscles that elevate the upper lip too much when smiling, exposing excessive gum tissue.
How Does Botox Help?
Botox temporarily relaxes these muscles, reducing the upper lip’s elevation to decrease gum show while maintaining a natural smile.
Dr. Stong’s Technique
Dr. Stong carefully targets the levator labii superioris muscle with precise Botox injections to achieve a balanced, harmonious smile without affecting speech or eating.
