Crown Lengthening

Enjoy a broader, more symmetrical smile through a crown lengthening procedure
Do you feel your teeth are a little shorter than you’d like or your smile appears “gummy”? Dr. Bokser can give you a wider, more symmetrical smile through a crown lengthening procedure. During this treatment, the dentist removes excess gum or bone tissue and reveals more of your natural tooth and creates a more even gum line.

You may also need crown lengthening if you require a restorative dental procedure, such as fixing a broken tooth or getting a porcelain crown. If you have any questions about crown lengthening or if you’d like Dr. Bokser to review your options, contact Astoria dental center today to schedule an appointment.

WHAT IS A CROWN LENGTHENING PROCEDURE?
Crown lengthening in Astoria is typically performed to improve the health of the gum tissue or prepare your mouth for certain restorative procedures – for example, if not enough of the tooth sticks out above the gum line to support a filling or crown. You may also consider crown lengthening if your smile can be described as “gummy,” where the teeth are covered with excess gum tissue.

Crown lengthening is a common surgical procedure performed by Dr. Bokser who will extend the height or size of the portion of the tooth that is visible above the gum line. The doctor will typically use local anesthesia and then gradually reshape or remove the excess gum and bone tissue to expose more of the natural tooth.

Once Dr. Bokser feels enough tooth has been exposed, the doctor will wash the area with sterile salt water and apply stitches to the gums. The entire procedure can usually be completed in less than one hour.

Dr. Bokser can perform crown lengthening on a single tooth, for a more even gum line, or to several teeth to reveal a broader smile or prepare you for further dental work.
