What is Crown Lengthening?

A gummy smile is characterized by more gum tissue showing than teeth when you smile. This condition makes your teeth appear stubby and small, which causes your smile to look less appealing. Through crown lengthening, Dr. Cho can reshape your gum line to show more teeth when you smile. The procedure entails surgically removing gum tissue and bone to expose the teeth underneath for a more symmetrical, pleasing smile.

Why Fix a Gummy Smile?

Not everyone is bothered with their gummy smile. However, if you are, you should be aware that it can be fixed! At the office of Dr. Claire Cho, you work with an experienced dentist for gummy smile treatment to give you the best possible results from your procedure.

Crown lengthening can improve the esthetics of your smile to make it more attractive and appealing. Improving your smile can enhance your overall appearance and boost your confidence and self-esteem. You’ll feel like smiling more often, which can do wonders for your social life and career. You’ll also have more incentive to care for your teeth to keep your smile looking beautiful, which can improve your oral health.
