Crown Lengthening Vista
Bring Balance to Your Gummy Smile
When you look at yourself in a mirror, do you see someone with a confident, happy smile, or do you see a smile that appears short and gummy? For some patients, this is a very real concern. The truth, however, is that your teeth aren’t any shorter or stubbier than anyone else’s; your mouth simply has more gum tissue than others do.
As a compassionate, experienced periodontist, Dr. Farhoumand can help patients who are struggling with this exact problem achieve a newfound sense of confidence. Using a procedure known as esthetic crown lengthening, she can remove excess tissue and unveil the fuller, more beautiful smile underneath. To help you with this simple cosmetic procedure, Dr. Farhoumand will coordinate with you and your general dentist to ensure that you receive the comfortable care you need in a familiar environment.

How Does Crown Lengthening Work?
The crown lengthening process will begin with a consultation with Dr. Farhoumand. She’ll ask you about your smile goals, medical and oral health history, and conduct a thorough examination of your gums and teeth before outlining the process for you and answering any questions you may have.
The next step will be the procedure itself, which is typically completed within an hour. Using a pain-less soft tissue laser, Dr. Farhoumand will gently and precisely trace around the teeth to remove excess gum tissue, revealing more of your healthy dental structure. The results are permanent, so you won’t have to worry about coming back for the same treatment!
