Can Crown Lengthening Reduce That Gummy Smile?
|
Posted on 3/20/2020 by Todd Jorgenson |
 Are you embarrassed by your gummy smile? Do your teeth appear short or small when you smile? Perhaps your smile has been worn down over time or your teeth have been chipped which can make them appear shorter. Whatever the reason your teeth appear small or short, we can help. Crown lengthening can help reduce your gummy smile and restore it naturally.
Short TeethWhether your teeth appear shorter due to wear, damage or overgrown and excessive gum tissue, we can help you restore your smile and reduce the appearance of your gummy smile through crown lengthening. Dental crown lengthening is a surgical procedure that we perform using anesthetic. The gum tissue is reshaped and if needed, so is the bone. This changes the appearance of the gum line by moving it back away from the teeth and exposing more of your natural teeth.
Dental crown lengthening is often used in dental restoration when the teeth have either been damaged below the gum line or even broken, or if the teeth are too short to support a crown which may be needed due to decay. In addition to these restorative purposes, we can perform crown lengthening to improve the overall appearance of your smile, giving you the confidence to share your smile with the world!
Dental crown lengthening may also be recommended if you have shorter teeth and would like to have veneers applied. We handle not only cosmetic crown lengthening, but also do many restorative crown lengthening procedures.
Whether you have one tooth that needs crown lengthening or several teeth, our office is happy to meet with you and discuss your options for dental crown lengthening. Let us help you expose your natural smile for the world to see! Give our office a call today and schedule your consultation, we look forward to helping you shine! |
