Procedures Offered

Esthetic Crown Lengthening: This procedure involves carefully reshaping the gum tissue to expose more of the tooth surface, which enhances the overall appearance of the smile. By removing excess gum tissue, it creates a more balanced and esthetically pleasing smile, allowing for a greater display of the teeth and improving the harmony between the gums and teeth. This technique is especially beneficial for individuals with a "gummy" smile, helping to boost confidence and self-esteem.
Pontic Site Development: This important preparatory step is necessary for the successful placement of a dental bridge. It involves contouring the gum tissue around the area where the bridge will be installed, ensuring that the site is ideal for both function and aesthetics. By achieving the right shape and density in the gum tissue, this procedure enhances the natural-looking result of the dental bridge, ensuring it blends seamlessly with the existing teeth and providing a strong foundation for long-term stability and comfort.
