Esthetic and Functional Crown Lengthening

When you smile do you feel like you mostly see your gums? If so crown lengthening may be what you need. It is a relatively simple procedure and can make a big difference to your smile. It is essentially a gum lift. Dr. Abrew removes excess gum and bone tissue and reshapes the smile to expose more of the natural tooth. While the procedure can be performed on just one tooth, it is most often done to the entire smile. The end result is that more of the natural tooth is exposed creating a wider, more beautiful smile.

Functional crown lengthening is needed in order to perform cosmetic or restorative procedures if a tooth is too far decayed below the gumline, or has insufficient structure for restoration. In cases like this, the doctor will reshape the gums and supporting bone to allow for adequate room to place a high quality restoration.
