Smile Enhacement
Esthetic crown lengthening and tissue re-contouring are surgical procedures in which excessive gum tissue is sculpted to elongate teeth that look too short or smiles that look too "gummy". Your teeth may actually be the proper lengths, but they are covered with too much gum tissue. This results in a more natural look of your smile.
Candidates for this type of cosmetic procedure are patients that present:
"Gummy smiles" which makes their teeth look shorter and square
Gums that are asymmetrical or have uneven tissue height
This procedure is performed under local anesthetic. Sedation may be available
