What Is Crown Lengthening?

Do you ever feel your gums overtake your smile? A gummy smile can make your teeth appear too short or too small, creating an unbalanced look. Crown lengthening is a specialized procedure to reshape the gumline and underlying bone to reveal more of your natural tooth structure.

Our periodontal specialists at Idaho Perio have advanced expertise in crown lengthening for cosmetic enhancement, the treatment of gum disease, and providing enough tooth structure to restore badly damaged teeth.

What to Expect from
Our Crown Lengthening Procedure

First, our team will evaluate your oral health thoroughly, including taking detailed diagnostic images like digital X-rays, to create a personalized treatment plan appropriate to your needs. Before starting your procedure, we’ll thoroughly numb the area and ensure you’re completely comfortable with the right sedation option .

From there, we’ll carefully remove or reshape excess gum tissue and, if necessary, adjust the underlying bone to create the cosmetic and functional benefits of crown extension. Then, we’ll place sutures and appropriate dressings to ensure a smooth healing process. You may experience some swelling and discomfort for several days after your procedure. Most of the healing process takes about two weeks, and complete healing takes about two months.
