If your gums hog the spotlight, you need space for a restoration, or you have tooth decay, laser crown lengthening, or laser crown preparation, may be the solution for you. This procedure utilizes advanced laser technology to precisely reshape your gum line, giving your teeth room to shine. Think of it as giving your smile a perfectly tailored makeover.

At Dee for Dentist, Dr. Dee Dee Meevasin and our experienced team use cutting-edge laser technology as part of our comprehensive general dentistry services to perform crown lengthening with exceptional precision and comfort. With locations in both Silverado Ranch and the Medical District, we can help you discover how laser crown lengthening can transform your smile and your confidence.

Why You May Need Laser Crown Lengthening

Several situations make laser crown lengthening the perfect solution for achieving your best smile, and our advanced laser dental services make this procedure more comfortable than ever. From fixing cosmetic concerns to preparing for restorative treatments, this versatile procedure addresses the following dental challenges with remarkable precision:

You Have a Gummy Smile

If your teeth look short because extra gum tissue is covering them, you might have what’s commonly called a “gummy smile.” Your teeth aren’t actually too small; they’re just hiding behind excess gum tissue. Laser crown lengthening removes this extra tissue with pinpoint accuracy, revealing more of your natural tooth structure and making cleaning your teeth easier.

You Have Decay Below the Gum Line

Sometimes, tooth decay likes to hide in places you can’t see, like below your gum line. When this happens, traditional treatment becomes tricky because we need to access the problem area first. Laser crown lengthening removes the gum tissue covering the decay, giving us clear access to clean out the cavity and restore your tooth properly, and if you experience sudden pain from hidden decay, our emergency dental care team is here to help.

Your Tooth Needs More Surface for a Restoration

When a tooth breaks at or below the gum line, there often isn’t enough tooth structure visible to properly attach a crown or other restoration. It’s like trying to put a hat on someone’s head when most of their head is buried in sand; there just isn’t enough to work with.

Laser crown lengthening exposes more of the tooth structure, creating a larger and more stable foundation for your restoration. This ensures your crown or filling will fit properly and last longer, giving you better value for your investment.

You’re Getting Veneers

Crown lengthening and veneers often work together to create your dream smile. If your gum line is uneven or covering too much of your teeth, your veneers won’t be able to create the smooth, natural-looking results you want. Crown lengthening helps your veneers sit flush against your teeth for results that look and feel completely natural.

Our 3D printing technology helps us plan both procedures together, ensuring your final results exceed your expectations. The combination of crown lengthening and veneers can completely transform your smile’s appearance.

You Need Gum Disease Treatment

While not technically crown lengthening, laser technology can also repair damage from gum disease. If gum disease has created an uneven gum line or left infected tissue, laser treatment can address both issues simultaneously. The laser targets infected tissue while reshaping your gum line for better health and appearance.

Key advantages of laser gum treatment include the following:

  • Sterilizes the area while removing tissue
  • Minimal bleeding and swelling
  • Faster healing compared to traditional methods
  • Reduced risk of infection

This comprehensive approach means you can address both health and cosmetic concerns in fewer appointments.

How Laser Technology Makes a Difference in Your Dental Treatment

Laser crown lengthening offers significant advantages over traditional methods. The laser sterilizes and seals tissue as it works, which means less bleeding, reduced infection risk, and faster healing. Most patients experience minimal discomfort and may not even need anesthesia.

Recovery typically takes just a couple of weeks, and you can return to normal activities much sooner than with traditional gum surgery. The precision of laser technology also means more predictable, natural-looking results that enhance both your smile’s health and appearance.
