Crown Lengthening
When you smile, do your teeth look short because they’re concealed by too much gum tissue? Do you have a gummy smile? An uneven gumline? Or is there insufficient tooth structure available for a needed dental restoration? Crown lengthening can more beautifully frame your teeth and create the perfect setting for cosmetic restoration.
Dr. David Lamberts has extensive training and experience in periodontic plastic surgery and crown lengthening. He pays meticulous attention to detail with an artist’s touch. This is crucial since minute details can dramatically affect the outcome.
Before crown lengthening, we will discuss your treatment goals and show you what to expect with digitally enhanced photos. During the treatment, excess gum and supporting tissue is gently sculpted with a laser and other microsurgical procedures, on one or more teeth to create a more perfect frame and natural broad smile. Local anesthetic is used to ensure a painless treatment, and recovery is rapid and comfortable.
