Crown Lengthening for a Harmonious, Balanced Smile
If you feel your smile shows too much gum or your teeth look short, crown lengthening could be the ideal solution. This procedure carefully reshapes the gum line to expose more of your natural teeth, enhancing both the aesthetics and balance of your smile. By removing excess gum tissue, your teeth appear longer and better proportioned, helping you achieve a more harmonious and confident smile.
Enhance Your Smile with Precision Crown Lengthening
Crown lengthening serves both restorative and cosmetic purposes. When a tooth has decay or a fracture below the gum line, this procedure exposes more of the tooth’s crown, providing adequate structure for fillings, crowns, or other restorations.
The treatment is performed under local anesthesia, so you may experience mild discomfort as the numbing effect wears off. Pain management is typically provided, and it’s important to inform your dentist of any medications you are taking. A follow-up visit is usually scheduled to check healing and remove any stitches if necessary.
