crown lengthening
patient testimonials
Since I had the procedure, I’m able to chew food in a way I was struggling to do before. There was some level of confidence I don’t think I was aware had been affected.

I love the staff. They are just amazing. They’re so friendly and they keep up with all the schooling, the certifications. So they know exactly what they’re doing. Dr. Bean is just so amazing.

benefits of crown lengthening
Reveal more of your tooth for restorations or aesthetics.
improves symmetry
Crown lengthening helps balance uneven gumlines or reduce the appearance of a gummy smile for a symmetrical look.
tooth access
By removing excess gum tissue, this procedure reveals more of the tooth structure hidden beneath the gums.
supports crowns
Exposing more of the tooth allows space for secure placement of crowns or other dental restorations.
gum contouring
The gumline is carefully sculpted and reshaped to create a more refined and attractive smile.
in-office procedure
The treatment is performed comfortably in-office using local anesthesia for a smooth experience.
faster healing
Patients typically experience only mild discomfort and enjoy a relatively quick and easy recovery.
common questions
Here are a few things patients ask about crown lengthening.
is it only cosmetic?
Not at all—it’s not just for aesthetics. Crown lengthening can also be necessary to treat tooth decay below the gumline or to make space for a crown when too little tooth structure is exposed. It plays both a restorative and cosmetic role.
can I do just one tooth?
Yes, absolutely. Crown lengthening can be performed on a single tooth if needed—such as for a restoration or cosmetic fix—or on multiple teeth if you’re looking to enhance your overall smile. The treatment is highly customizable.
will it change how I smile?
Yes, it often does! By reducing excess gum tissue, crown lengthening can improve the balance of your smile, reduce the appearance of a “gummy” smile, and make your teeth look longer.
is it permanent?
Yes, the results are typically permanent. Once the excess gum tissue and bone are removed and reshaped, they rarely grow back, making it a lasting solution for both cosmetic and restorative needs.
