Experiencing Gum Recession?
Gummy Smile
If you feel like your teeth look small or your smile shows too much gum, you might have what’s called a “gummy smile.” This can happen when extra gum tissue covers more of your teeth than normal. Crown lengthening is a procedure that reshapes the gums and sometimes the bone around your teeth to reveal more of the natural tooth structure.
This specialized procedure creates a better balance between your teeth and gums, giving you a more proportional and attractive smile. See the Patient Transformation section below for Crown Lengthening cases treated by Dr. Bye.
The Benefits of Crown Lengthening
- NTransform the way a smile looks for the better.
- NMakes teeth appear naturally longer.
- NYour gums become less prominent.
- NRaise the confidence level of a smile.
