Crown lengthening

Crowns are tooth-shaped caps that fit over your damaged natural teeth. Wearing a crown restores your aesthetics and your oral functionalities. If you have broken, misshapen, or cracked teeth, dentists find crowns an effective solution.

At 1-2-3 Smile Family Dentistry, we use high-quality crowns to complete dental procedures, such as bridge, root canals, etc. They are customized to fit your existing tooth structure perfectly.

Crown lengthening procedures are generally performed when the remaining tooth structure is not enough to hold your crown in place. The procedure involves reducing down the gum tissues and shaving the bones so that more of your tooth structure is exposed. It helps in placing crowns, and the procedure can also be used for treating gummy smiles. We have experienced dentists in Miami, FL, who will check the condition of your teeth and then decide whether you need to undergo this procedure.

What are the benefits of crown lengthening?

Crown lengthening is mainly formed to fit the crown properly on damaged teeth. It can also be used for treating gummy smiles. Dr. Renier Suarez and Dr. Teresa Suarez are committed to providing you with the healthy and beautiful smile that you have always wanted. Some benefits of crown lengthening at our dental office in Miami, FL, include:

Your natural tooth can be saved even if its crown is broken. Once the excess gingival tissues are removed using the crown lengthening procedure, artificial crowns can easily be fitted to restore your smile.
It helps to rectify inconsistent gum lines and gives you a perfect smile.
The more the gums, the greater is the chance of acquiring oral diseases. It is because you will never be able to clean the gummy parts, leading to the accumulation of plaque and tartar.
The gums need to be at a proper level so that dental procedures like implants and bridges can correctly set around them. Also, putting a filling also becomes a task if you have too much gum tissue.
Extraction procedures might, too, sometimes require the removal of the excess gum tissues. Thus the crown lengthening procedure promotes quick, efficient, and less painful tooth extraction.
