Crown Lengthening - Precision Gum Contouring in the Southern Highlands
If you have a "gummy" smile or require more tooth exposure for restorative dental work, crown lengthening could be the ideal solution. At Southern Highlands Dental Implants and Cosmetic Centre, we offer expert crown lengthening procedures to enhance your smile or prepare your teeth for further treatment.
What Is Crown Lengthening?
Crown lengthening is a minor surgical procedure that reshapes the gum line—and sometimes the underlying bone—to expose more of the natural tooth structure. This can be performed on a single tooth, several teeth, or your entire smile, depending on your needs.
This procedure is commonly recommended for:
- Restoring teeth that are broken or decayed below the gum line
- Preparing teeth for crowns or other restorations
- Improving the appearance of a gummy or uneven smile
Crown lengthening offers both aesthetic and restorative benefits, including:
- Creating a more balanced and symmetrical smile
- Making teeth appear longer and more proportionate
- Allowing for secure placement of crowns or fillings
- Improving gum health by eliminating deep pockets where bacteria can accumulate
What to Expect During the Procedure
At Southern Highlands Dental Implants and Cosmetic Centre, crown lengthening is carried out with precision and care. The procedure is performed under local anaesthetic, ensuring your comfort at every stage. Dr Ahmed gently remove excess gum tissue, and, if necessary, reshapes the bone around the affected teeth.
After the procedure, you may experience mild swelling or sensitivity, which typically subsides within a few days. We’ll provide full aftercare instructions and arrange follow-up visits to monitor healing.
