What is Crown Lengthening?
In many cases of dental decay, tooth fracture, or even where an individual has “short” teeth, a crown lengthening procedure will allow us to properly construct an esthetic and functional crown, bridge, or restoration. Teeth require some amount of height for a crown or bridge to be placed and held in position. The shorter tooth may not be able to hold the crown adequately and may tend to slip during chewing or biting movements. Taking enough length from the root portion of the tooth helps to build the fixed crown successfully. This makes the fixed crown more visually appealing and functionally superior.
Procedure
Crown lengthening is a simple surgical procedure in which the dentist adjusts the position of the gum around the affected tooth, providing a more solid tooth on which to anchor the restoration of choice. A functional crown lengthening will help you regain a beautiful smile and allow you to eat and speak with comfort and confidence.

Dr. Dobee IS AMAZING, she helped me with my deep clean and continued to follow up with me afterwards to make sure I was experiencing minimal pain throughout the recovery process. She really cares about her patients and I HIGHLY recommend her!

I had some problems with my insurance which the front desk took care of and they were super friendly while waiting for responds regarding my insurance. My visit was very informative also the treatment plans weren't pushed and forced like other dentists do. So they're going to be my place for dental treatments from now on!
