Crown lengthening or Gum Repositioning improves esthetic of gummy smiles by making teeth longer or to create space for dental crowns/ veneers.
Excess gum and bone tissue is reshaped to expose more of the natural tooth.
This is a minor surgical procedure with minimal postoperative discomfort.
Crown lengthening is often performed with other dental procedures like crowns or veneer to give the patient optimal esthetic result.
