Flash Your Best Smile: Gummy Smile Treatment at Dr. Hariom Singh Dental Clinic.
Do you feel your teeth look too short or that you show "too much gum" when you laugh? You might have what is known as a gummy smile. We specialize in aesthetic crown lengthening—a precise procedure designed to reshape your gum line and reveal the beautiful, natural teeth hidden beneath.
Why Choose Crown Lengthening?
• Perfect Proportions: We create a balanced ratio between your teeth and gums.
• Enhanced Confidence: Achieve a symmetrical, "Hollywood" smile you’ll love to show off.
• Better Oral Health: Removing excess tissue makes it easier to brush and prevents gum disease.
• Quick Results: This is a permanent, one-time procedure.
FAQs
1. Is crown lengthening painful?
No. We use local anesthesia to ensure the area is completely numb. You may feel slight pressure, but the procedure itself is pain-free.
2. How long is the recovery?
Initial healing takes about 7 to 14 days. Most patients return to work the next day, though we recommend soft foods for the first week.
3. Does the gum tissue grow back?
Unlike some treatments, surgical crown lengthening results are permanent. Once the excess tissue is removed and the gum line is contoured, it does not grow back.
4. Is this just for looks?
While often cosmetic, it is also a functional crown lengthening procedure used to prepare a tooth for a dental crown if there isn't enough structure exposed.
