Cost of Crown Lengthening

Crown lengthening is a surgical procedure to remove excess gum tissue and expose more the tooth. This procedure is sometimes performed before crowning.

This attractive young lady had a tooth that is half covered with excess gum tissue.

The tooth looks partially buried.

Crown lengthening is a procedure that removes bone and gum around the tooth to expose more crown height. The tooth looks more natural after surgery. The gum level will take about 2 months to stabilise. Ideally, the patient should have some gum removed from the next tooth (the right central incisor) as well.

The procedure of crown lengthening is $300 nett.
