Crown lengthening surgeries
What is Crown Lengthening Surgery?
Imagine your gums as a curtain covering part of your smile. Crown lengthening surgery gently raises this curtain, exposing more of the natural tooth structure. This can be achieved through:
- Gum reshaping: Removing excess gum tissue around the tooth to reveal a longer crown.
- Bone removal: Realigning and reshaping the underlying bone to provide a stable foundation for a crown.
- A combination of both: In some cases, both gum and bone adjustments may be required to achieve the desired aesthetics and functionality.
Why Choose Crown Lengthening Surgery?
While primarily an aesthetic procedure, crown lengthening offers numerous benefits
Unlock a naturally beautiful smile
Reveal hidden portions of your teeth, creating a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing grin.
Prepare for restorative procedures
If your teeth lack sufficient structure for crowns or bridges, crown lengthening can create the necessary foundation.
Improve oral health
Exposed tooth surfaces are easier to clean, reducing the risk of decay and gum disease.
Boost confidence and self-esteem
A more beautiful smile empowers you to smile freely and interact with the world with newfound confidence.
