Why should I choose crown lengthening?
Crown lengthening is one of the best ways to eliminate excess gum tissue from around your teeth, and create a more balanced smile. It can help you restore your appearance and your self-confidence. And in some cases, it’s medically necessary. For example, if you have a damaged tooth that needs a dental crown, the crown lengthening procedure may be necessary to remove some gum tissue and prepare for the crown placement process.

The results of crown lengthening are permanent, so your smile will look more even, balanced, and beautiful for a lifetime.
The Benefits of Crown Lengthening
Create A Balanced, Appealing Smile
If you have a “gummy” smile, you may feel self-conscious about showing your teeth in social situations. With crown lengthening, your oral surgeon can expose more tooth material, create a more balanced appearance, and improve your confidence.
Prepare For Other Dental Treatments
If not enough of your tooth is exposed, crown lengthening may be needed to expose more tooth structure in preparation for a dental crown or a similar restoration. It ensures that your follow-up procedure will be successful.
Long-Lasting Results
Crown lengthening treatment is permanent, and will keep your smile healthy and balanced for years to come, so it’s a good investment for both your appearance and your oral health.

The Crown Lengthening Process
Cleaning & Preparation
To begin, your oral surgeon will clean your gums and mouth, and numb your mouth to ensure your comfort. You won’t feel a thing during the treatment process.
Removing & Sculpting Gum Tissue
Next, your oral surgeon will use a variety of special tools to remove some gum tissue from around your teeth, and to reshape the underlying bone, if necessary. They will follow a custom surgical plan to make sure your new smile looks perfect.

Once your procedure is done, you’ll be sent home with instructions on how to rest, heal, and recover. Make sure you follow your instructions, and come to our office for any scheduled follow-ups so that Dr. Mardirossian can check on your healing and recovery.
