Am I a Candidate for Crown Lengthening?

A gummy smile or small teeth can make you doubt yourself. This can make you feel self-conscious, especially when you are with other people. Our effective treatment can help give you the smile you have always dreamed of. Dr. Williams can reveal the smile you have been hiding all this time. If you want to know if you are a candidate for crown lengthening, here are the details to consider.

You Seem to Have Small Teeth

The American Dental Association is aware of how difficult it is to have excessive gum tissue. Low self-esteem and awkwardness can make daily activities difficult to finish. Your periodontist can recommend crown lengthening to remove the gum tissue that covers almost half of your teeth. This procedure can free the rest of your developed teeth. The procedure can complete your smile.

You Have Good Dental Health

Healing from this type of treatment can be a difficult journey for people with dental issues, such as periodontitis. Gums and teeth without diseases can heal faster. This reduces any risk of infection. Good dental health is achievable with good dental care practices and regular dental checks. Your periodontist can explain what you must prepare for during your recovery.

You Want to Reduce Dental Damage

Sometimes, dental cracks, fractures, and cavities can cause severe pain and discomfort. This can result in general unwellness, which can affect your daily life. Your periodontist may recommend crown lengthening to address dental damage. The procedure can reveal the cause of pain. This will then give way to complete repair. Crown lengthening also allows better teeth cleaning. This can then prevent future dental decay from happening. It is a procedure that can improve your dental and general health.

You Want to Improve the Way You Look

A gummy or uneven smile can affect your smile. It may cause embarrassment each time you talk, laugh, or pose for photos. Crown lengthening can reshape your gumline and allow you to achieve symmetry in your smile.

You Want to Have Other Dental Procedures

Discovering that you will get many dental procedures can cause extreme sadness. Knowing more about these procedures can make you feel better about what you will go through. Crown lengthening can happen with other cosmetic dental treatments, such as veneers or dental bonding. It can also be a treatment on its own. This treatment can improve the way you look by balancing your tooth-to-gum ratio. The dramatic improvement can help you gain more self-assurance.

You Want to Have Dental Restoration

Dental damage, staining, and decay can be embarrassing, especially if you are always in front of people. Restoring your teeth can bring back your self-assurance. Crown lengthening can help dental restorations look and fit better. It can provide a more stable base for your dental restoration.
