Cosmetic Crown Lengthening
in Tarzana, CA
Reveal a Balanced, Beautiful Smile
Do your teeth look too short or uneven? Cosmetic crown lengthening reshapes gum and bone tissue to expose more of your natural tooth. It creates a balanced, attractive smile while improving oral health
What Is a Cosmetic Crown Lengthening
Cosmetic crown lengthening is a dental procedure that removes excess gum tissue (and sometimes a small amount of bone) to expose more of the tooth’s surface. It’s often used for aesthetic reasons, such as correcting a “gummy” smile or uneven teeth. The procedure can also prepare a tooth for restorations like crowns or veneers, ensuring a natural, proportional appearance while maintaining healthy gums.

Cosmetic crown lengthening is a procedure that reshapes the gum tissue — and sometimes the underlying bone — to expose more of the natural tooth structure. This treatment helps create better tooth proportions, improve symmetry, and enhance the overall appearance of your smile. Crown lengthening is often used to make teeth look longer and more balanced, while maintaining healthy gum levels and supporting long-term oral health.
