Do you hide your smile because too much gum shows?
At Claire Cho DDS in Aliso Viejo, CA, we offer a precise crown-lengthening procedure to correct “gummy smiles.”
Also called “gum-lift” or soft-tissue re-contouring, the goal is to expose more tooth and reshape the gumline for a beautiful smile.
The treatment begins with local anesthesia, then excess gum (and sometimes bone) is gently removed and sutures placed to allow proper healing.
Most patients completely heal within six to eight weeks, then final veneers or crowns may be placed if needed.
