Crown Lengthening

Before placing a crown, your general dentist must first prepare your tooth. Sometimes there is not enough tooth structure above the gum line to accept a new crown. "Crown lengthening" provides more tooth structure for your crown. This ensures a more stable crown with less resulting gum irritation.
Procedure: Dr. Carter administers a local anesthetic and gently recontours excess gum and bone tissue to expose more of your natural tooth.
