At Harlem Family Dental, we offer crown lengthening procedures to improve the appearance of your smile and prepare your teeth for restorative treatments. Our skilled team is dedicated to providing precise and effective care.
What Is Crown Lengthening?
Crown lengthening is a surgical procedure that involves removing excess gum tissue to expose more of the tooth's surface. This can be done for cosmetic reasons or to prepare a tooth for a crown or other restorative treatment.
Benefits of Crown Lengthening
Enhanced Aesthetics Crown lengthening can correct a "gummy" smile, creating a more balanced and attractive appearance.
Improved Oral Health By reducing excess gum tissue, crown lengthening helps prevent gum disease and makes it easier to clean your teeth.
Preparation for Restorations Crown lengthening provides adequate space for dental crowns, fillings, or other restorations, ensuring a secure and proper fit.
The Crown Lengthening Procedure
Consultation and Examination Your dentist will evaluate your teeth and gums and discuss your goals to determine if crown lengthening is the right option for you.
Local Anesthesia The area to be treated is numbed with local anesthesia to ensure your comfort during the procedure.
Tissue Removal Excess gum tissue is carefully removed to expose more of the tooth. In some cases, a small amount of bone may also be removed.
Healing and Recovery After the procedure, your gums will need time to heal. Your dentist will provide instructions for post-operative care to ensure a smooth recovery.
