At Naperville Perio, situated at 1816 Bay Scott Circle, Suite 104 Naperville, IL 60540, we offer crown lengthening as a periodontal solution to improve both the aesthetics and functionality of your smile. This procedure benefits patients with short-looking teeth or excessive gum tissue, making it essential to understand its role in enhancing oral health.
Crown lengthening involves the surgical reshaping of gum and bone tissue to reveal more tooth structure. This treatment is particularly beneficial in various scenarios, such as:
Preparation for Restorative Procedures: When a tooth is damaged or decayed beneath the gum line, crown lengthening uncovers adequate tooth structure for effective crown placement.
Addressing Cosmetic Concerns: For individuals with a "gummy smile," where too much gum tissue overshadows the teeth, crown lengthening redistributes the gum for a harmonious and attractive smile.
Treating Gum Disease: For patients with periodontal disease, crown lengthening can restore health by excising infected gum tissue.
Choosing Naperville Perio for your crown lengthening procedure means opting for advanced techniques that emphasize patient comfort and successful results. Our skilled team provides personalized care tailored to each patient's unique needs, ensuring an exceptional experience.
