I would like to:

A surgical treatment, crown lengthening is a treatment performed when a tooth requires a new crown. Crown lengthening is performed under local anesthetic.

What can I expect from crown lengthening treatment?

Crown lengthening is a method used to expose more of a tooth, in order to allow the dentist to restore it. Your dentist will adjust the bone and gum level, so they can treat it safely and effectively. We will prescribe you painkillers to take after the procedure as you may experience some discomfort.

What are the benefits of crown lengthening?

  • A properly fitting crown allows for improved hygiene and comfort.
  • Crown lengthening can be used to alter a “gummy smile” – when the gums are visible above your teeth when smiling.
  • As more of the tooth is exposed for brushing and flossing, it reduces your chances of tooth decay.
  • The procedure takes only 30 minutes to perform.
