Crown lengthening reshapes excess gum tissue to expose more of the natural tooth. It may be recommended to improve smile aesthetics, correct a gummy smile, or provide better access for restorative dental treatment.
This procedure can improve proportion, create a more balanced gumline, or make it possible to properly restore a tooth.
Excess gum tissue is carefully adjusted around one or more teeth.
More tooth structure becomes visible for aesthetics or treatment access.
The gumline can be refined to create a cleaner, more proportional smile.
