What Is Crown Lengthening?

gummy smile surgery Perfect smiles created at Just Smiles often require crown lengthening.

Crown lengthening surgery is a safe and effective procedure that exposes more of the visible part of the tooth. Some patients undergo crown lengthening surgery at Just Smiles to alter their gummy smile.

A gummy smile refers to upper teeth that appear too short because excess bone and soft tissue cover part of the teeth. When a gummy smile is eliminated, our Hilliard patients can’t believe how it changes their whole face. They love their new smile which reveals pleasing, symmetrical portions of their upper teeth.

Sometimes, a patient needs crown lengthening because of a tooth fracture. When a tooth breaks at the gumline or a crown is fractured, crown lengthening makes tooth structure accessible for the necessary restoration.

Digital imaging is one of the technological tools that helps Columbus dental professionals perform crown lengthening and other cosmetic dentistry procedures. When a Hilliard cosmetic dentist has a highly detailed, 3-D image of tooth and bone structure, he/she can achieve the precision necessary to design smiles to the patient’s exact specifications.

If you are seeking a dental smile makeover and live in the Columbus area, schedule a smile consultation. When you come in, we can show you photos of Ohio cosmetic dentistry patients who are enjoying their dazzling smiles that were created with the help of the skilled smile artists at Just Smiles.
