Crown Lengthening

Crown Lengthening

What is Crown Lengthening?

Crown lengthening is a periodontal procedure used to expose more of a tooth’s surface, often required when a tooth is decayed below the gum line or if a gummy smile (excess gum tissue) needs correction. This procedure involves removing excess gum tissue or reshaping the bone to allow for proper placement of a dental restoration (like a crown) or to improve the appearance of your smile.

Benefits of Crown Lengthening

  • Improves Tooth Function: Exposes more of the tooth structure, allowing for better placement of crowns or other restorations.
  • Enhances Smile Aesthetics: Reduces the appearance of a gummy smile, making the teeth look longer and more proportionate.
  • Protects Your Oral Health: Ensures that your dental restorations are placed properly for long-term durability and function.
