Clinical crown lengthening is a procedure designed to expose more of a tooth’s structure so that restorative work -- for example, crowns, bridges and veneers -- will be structurally sound and esthetically pleasing. Clinical crown lengthening helps the restorative dentist save teeth that might otherwise be lost because of decay or fracture. It can also help the restorative dentist create restorations that look as good as they feel and function.
