Crown Lengthening
A healthy and functional smile sometimes requires reshaping the gum and bone to expose more of your natural teeth. At SameDay Dental, we provide professional Crown Lengthening services in Oakville, Erin, Hamilton, Scarborough and Bloor West Village to improve both aesthetics and oral health.
Crown Lengthening is a dental procedure that removes excess gum tissue and, if necessary, reshapes underlying bone to expose more of the tooth structure. This treatment is often recommended for patients preparing for restorative work, such as crowns, or to correct a “gummy” smile for cosmetic enhancement. Our skilled dental team at SameDay Dental ensures that crown lengthening is performed with precision and care, prioritizing patient comfort throughout the procedure. By exposing more of the tooth, we create a solid foundation for restorations and enhance the overall appearance of your smile.
