about Crown Lengthening?

What Is Crown Lengthening?

As the name implies, crown lengthening is a procedure that makes teeth appear longer by removing a portion of gum tissue so that it arches around the visible tooth (crown) at a higher level. Using special dental tools, this gum tissue is removed with careful attention to the new arch created around each tooth. Dr. Gandhi and Dr. Harvey are skilled at this precise level of detail so that your teeth and gumline are balanced and in proper proportion with each other.

What are the benefits of Crown Lengthening?

Seeking treatment for a gummy smile happens commonly because patients are embarrassed by the appearance of their smile. But crown lengthening can have health benefits as well as cosmetically enhancing the smile! Too much gum tissue increases the potential for bacterial accumulation around the teeth and render it difficult to attach a dental crown. Removal of this tissue can reduce the risk for gum disease as well as make oral hygiene easier, and allow for a crown to be placed. As a minimally-invasive treatment option, crown lengthening is the best choice for reversing a gummy smile, providing you with long-term aesthetics for your smile!

How do I get started?

Start with a Consultation with Dr. Gandhi. At this consultation, the doctor will create a customized treatment plan just for you. You’ll learn exactly how much the procedure will cost without having to worry about any surprise fees. And remember: a consultation is a conversation. It’s not a commitment. You have nothing to lose and a beautiful smile to gain.
