Some people have short teeth or a “gummy smile.” This simply means that your gums have grown over your teeth, making them appear smaller than they should! Anatomical Crown Exposure is a procedure where excess gum tissue is removed to expose more of the tooth.
Once we treat your gummy smile, the gum line is then sculpted to create a more correct proportion between gum tissue and tooth surface.
Dr. BAK and his team will first design your smile on a computer, so you can see the outcome before we begin treatment. Once you approve every aspect of your future smile, DR. BAK will use a state-of-the-art laser machine to treat your gummy smile without pain or bleeding. Our advanced techniques limit the pain and discomfort of the procedure, making it an amazing procedure with immediate results.
If you have any questions about gum lengthening or would like to be seen, don’t hesitate to contact us today at (818) 705-3232.
