Crown lengthening is a precise procedure that reshapes gum and bone tissue to reveal more of the tooth’s surface. At Grace Family Dental, we offer crown lengthening in Worcester, Massachusetts, to support restorative care or enhance smile aesthetics. Whether you need access to a damaged tooth or want to reduce a “gummy” smile, we provide care that is both functional and artistic.
Advanced Gum Reshaping
Our dentist and team perform crown lengthening for a variety of reasons. For some patients, it creates the access needed for a dental crown or filling when a tooth is broken or worn below the gumline. For others, it helps achieve a more balanced smile by adjusting the gum-to-tooth ratio.
Dr. Harjeet Mundra carefully evaluates the position of your gums, teeth and supporting bone to create a plan that prioritizes both health and appearance. The procedure is performed with precision and attention to comfort, using techniques designed to reduce healing time and improve long-term outcomes.
Benefits of Crown Lengthening
At our office, crown lengthening can provide significant improvements in both dental health and overall appearance:
- Exposes more of the natural tooth structure for restorations
- Helps secure dental crowns or fillings more effectively
- Reduces excessive gum tissue for a more even smile
- Improves oral hygiene access and reduces plaque buildup
- Supports better gum health and reduces irritation
- Enhances self-confidence through cosmetic improvement
We will walk you through the process, explain what to expect and provide clear aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth recovery.
