Expert Crown Lengthening Treatment
Our crown lengthening in West Caldwell & Rockaway has both aesthetic and functional purposes. While many patients seek treatment for cosmetic concerns, we provide treatment for a gummy smile to promote oral health, too. Excessive gum tissues can harbor bacterial plaque underneath, increasing tooth decay and infection risk. Our dentists have the expertise to determine the cause of your condition and consider both the functional and esthetic aspects of your treatment. Planning is also crucial to ensure the most aesthetic outcomes for your procedure.
Our dentists will precisely map out the most natural height of each tooth and arch of the gums around them. Using considerable skill, we make sure that each individually treated tooth creates a stunningly balanced smile with the proper tooth-to-gum ratio. Next, you’ll undergo crown lengthening surgery while under sedation, where our dentists will gently remove the planned amount of tissue. You’ll experience minor swelling and discomfort after the procedure, but the esthetic results of your surgery will be noticeable soon after. Enjoy your attractive, new smile for years to come!
