Clinical
Crown Lengthening:
If you have a fractured or decayed
tooth , an insufficient amount of your own natural tooth is visible
for the dentist to repair or restore the tooth. Crown lengthening
procedure corrects this condition by exposing more of your
natural tooth surface for proper restorative treatment. It is essential
to have an adequate "biologic width" between the gingiva
and the tooth for the placement of a crown. This procedure often
makes a restorative or cosmetic treatment possible.
