How is the crown lengthening process performed?
The periodontist at the French Center for Dentistry and Aesthetics performs the crown lengthening procedure in an outpatient setting, which enables the patient to go home on the same day. The time taken for the procedure varies depending on the number of teeth that need crown lengthening and whether there is a need to remove soft tissues and bones. If you have a temporary crown on any of your adjacent teeth, your periodontist may remove it prior to the crown lengthening procedure and replace it later.
