BENEFITS OF crown lengthening
Washington, DC crown lengthening dentist
Crown lengthening can improve the appearance of your smile and also make it easier to keep your teeth clean. When you have a more even gum line, it is easier to brush and floss your teeth effectively. This can help to prevent
gum disease and
tooth decay. Crown lengthening can also help to prepare your tooth for a number of other procedures such as
dental implants, since more of the tooth is exposed.
What Is Crown Lengthening?
Crown lengthening is a surgical procedure that is performed in order to expose more of the tooth. This is done by removing gum tissue and bone from around the tooth. Crown lengthening can be used for both cosmetic and functional purposes. When it comes to cosmetic crown lengthening, the goal is to make teeth look longer. This can create the illusion of straighter, more even teeth. For functional crown lengthening, the goal is to prepare a tooth for a restoration, such as a crown. Crown lengthening can also be used to treat periodontal problems.
If you have gum disease, your gums may begin to pull away from your teeth. This can expose the roots of your teeth and make them more susceptible to decay. Crown lengthening can help to correct this problem by exposing more of the tooth so that the gum tissue can reattach.
