Surgical crown lengthening
Surgical lengthening of clinical crowns (gingivosseoplasty)
Tooth crowns that are too short can be an aesthetic problem and can hinder prosthetic treatment. The crown lengthening procedure involves removing excess gum and bone modelling to achieve the correct tooth length.
Indications:
- Preparation for prosthetic treatment.
- Correction of short tooth crowns in the aesthetic zone.
Recovery:
- Return to daily activities - after a few days, full formation of the gums - after a few months.
