Crown Lengthening

    What is Crown Lengthening?

    Irregularly shaped gums can detract from an otherwise attractive appearance, causing what is known as a gummy smile. This can occur when too much of the crown of the tooth (the part that is visible above the gum line) is covered up by gum tissue. Crown lengthening is a procedure to expose more of the crown of the tooth, reducing the amount of gum shown when smiling or talking. It is an excellent aesthetic procedure that can quickly improve the appearance of a smile.

    Will All My Teeth Need to be treated?

    Crown lengthening can be used to treat a single tooth or multiple front teeth. Our dentists can help you decide which teeth would most benefit from treatment and will advise you how much gum tissue will be removed.

    What is the Procedure for Crown Lengthening?

    We have a soft tissue laser for crown lengthening that will precisely cut away the excess gum tissue, leaving you with a more attractive smile. The treatment is very safe and can provide excellent results.

    Why Use a Laser for Crown Lengthening?

    A soft tissue laser is ideal for this type of treatment due to the high degree of precision it provides. Our laser ensures treatment is more comfortable and healing times are faster. This is because the laser automatically seals any small blood vessels cut during crown lengthening, reducing bleeding, the risk of infection and reducing swelling.

    Is There Any Other Reason for Crown Lengthening?

    It can be used to access a tooth that is badly decayed underneath the gum line or to lengthen a tooth that has broken down and which needs to be crowned. Once the gums have healed, the impressions are taken for the new crowns to be made.
