 Abstract

Crown lengthening is an aesthetic procedure that can be performed using either surgical or orthodontic techniques, or a combination of both. Surgical crown lengthening can be accomplished through either gingivectomy/gingivoplasty in cases of excessive gingival display or through apically positioned flap with osteoplasty/ostectomy to preserve the "biological width" in cases of inadequate crown length for restoration of prosthesis.
