What Is Aesthetic Crown Lengthening?

Aesthetic crown lengthening is an oral surgery procedure that can enhance the health and appearance of your smile. Crown lengthening may be a confusing name to some since it sounds like it entails making the tooth longer. A more precise term is crown exposure because gum tissue is excised to show more of the enamel. You may want crown lengthening for aesthetic reasons if you'd like to improve a "gummy" smile. It can also be needed if not enough of your tooth is visible to support a filling, crown, or another restoration. To get more information, schedule an appointment at Maison BE in New York, NY.

How Does Crown Lengthening Work?

Before the crown lengthening procedure, local anesthesia is applied to the needed regions to make the process more comfortable. You can discuss other sedation methods with Dr. Ellen Katz or Dr. Bridget Glazarov during your initial consultation to help you feel calm during the procedure. Once your mouth is prepared, the gum tissue is removed in small slivers to slowly show more of your enamel, and then your gumline will be sculpted for an even look. Once the treatment is complete, your dentist will seal the soft gum tissue to stop the bleeding, followed by cleaning your mouth. After your crown lengthening treatment, your mouth could be sore and swollen. Cold compresses and over-the-counter pain relievers can usually be utilized to minimize your discomfort, but we may prescribe antibiotics and/or pain medication. It may be helpful to adhere to a liquid or soft food diet as your mouth heals.

An exceptional dental experience like none other. From the moment I walked in the door until I left, I was treated like gold. The staff is warm and inviting. My hygienist, Jade was personable and put me at ease during my new patient experience. Dr. Ellen helped me create a plan of care based on my goals and what's best best for my oral health. The office is fabulous and it's a boutique experience I cannot recommend enough. This dental studio is like none other and I am so pleased to be a new patient at such a wonderful and caring dental studio. They have added touches and options that set them apart from all others and they have raised the bar on what an amazing patient experience is supposed to feel like. I speak confidently and with experience writing this review as I'm a nurse and they know what it means to make it all about the patient. They have thought of everything and then things that make sense that no other dental office has offered during an office visit. My under eye patches were soothing and my favorite part! I truly feel that everyone has my best interest at heart and insures I feel like a VIP while at Maison Be. They sent me home with a beautiful bag of goodies which made my day. I cannot wait to wear my new sweatshirt and feel apart of the Maison Be family as I am proud to represent such an exceptional dental studio. This women owned business has knocked it out of the park!!!!! I am pleased to support these women as they build a brand unlike none other. Thank you everyone who made my first experience one that I will not forget. I can't wait to go back and who says that about the dentist?! Fabulous and fun!!

Have been looking for a new dentist since i moved to the city and after some research and a TikTok post(haha) i decided to try out Maison Be. To start off the appointment making process was so smooth for a new patient, didn't have to call just made an appointment online; the front desk staff is very very organized, so welcoming and kind, very short wait and even offered me a beverage while i waited. The hygienist(completely forgot her name but i believe it starts with a J) and Dr (Ellen Katz) were both so sweet and personable. They both made me feel so comfortable with the amenities provided AND checked in with me while they were checking and cleaning my teeth. I really appreciate the service and visit I received because as a person of color I feel a lot of offices aren't as welcoming and genuine about the care they give me. So glad I found my new dentist! Thank you so much!!!

The doctor has the most personable approach, remembering me every time. Had my first ever filling (I was nervous) and they made me so comfortable. It also was super quick and efficient. As a former dentist hater/avoider, they have truly turned my views on the dentist around.

Dr. Ellen is the best. She had a comprehensive understanding of what I needed to get taken care of and she provided a plan that would work effectively to ensure I get the results I want. She was extremely attentive and performed every procedure smoothly with great results and zero pain! I recommend her for all dental needs and trust her to do what’s best for the patient because of her vast experience and academic knowledge. The experience at the office was 5 stars, it’s a beautiful place and felt like I was at a luxury spa!
