Do you feel your teeth look too short or square? Does your smile look too gummy or do your gums cover too much of some teeth while leaving the others the right length? If so, a procedure called crown lengthening might be the solution for you. During this procedure, excess gum tissue is removed to expose more of the crown of the tooth. Your gumline is sculpted to give your new smile just the right look. This procedure is frequently performed following orthodontic therapy or in preparation for veneers or crowns on the front teeth. An evaluation with Dr. Hodges will help you determine if crown lengthening is the best procedure for your smile.
