If you’re looking to fix your gummy smile, improve the health of your gum tissue, or prepare for restorative care, crown lengthening can boost your beams and set your smile up for success.
Crown lengthening is one of the best ways to eliminate excess gum tissue from around your teeth, and create a more balanced smile. It can help you restore your appearance and your self-confidence. And in some cases, it’s medically necessary. For example, if you have a damaged tooth that needs a dental crown, the crown lengthening procedure may be necessary to remove some gum tissue and prepare for the crown placement process.
