Gum Grafting & Crown Lengthening

Advanced periodontal procedures designed to restore healthy gums, improve tooth stability, and enhance smile aesthetics.

What are Gum Grafting & Crown Lengthening?

Gum grafting and crown lengthening are advanced periodontal surgical procedures used to treat gum recession, protect exposed tooth roots, and reshape an uneven gum line. Gum grafting restores lost tissue by reinforcing vulnerable areas, while crown lengthening reshapes gum and bone to expose more of the natural tooth, improving health and aesthetics.

How do Gum Grafting & Crown Lengthening work?

Treatment starts with a detailed periodontal evaluation to assess gum health, bone levels, and aesthetic goals. Using precise, minimally invasive techniques, gum tissue is repositioned or grafted to cover exposed roots, while crown lengthening reshapes the gum line to improve function and appearance, followed by guided healing.
