Surgical Crown Lengthening

Decay, fractured teeth and replacement of missing fillings may lead to an inadequate amount of healthy tooth structure exposure for proper crown (cap) retention. Altered tooth eruption patterns may also leave short teeth that can seriously compromise the esthetic appearance. Surgical crown lengthening is a procedure that exposes healthy tooth structure into the mouth facilitating adequate retention for a new crown or establishment of an esthetic gingival architecture.
