Crown Lengthening

A procedure used to improve the health of tissue or to correct a gummy smile. Crown lengthening is often required when your tooth needs a new crown or other restoration. The edge of that restoration is deep below the gum tissue and not immediately accessible. It is also usually too close to the bone or below the bone. For a cosmetic “gum lift”, excess gum tissue and bone can be sculpted to create a more esthetic smile. Patients can see immediate results following the completion of the procedure.
