✨Transformation Tuesday!✨
Esthetic Crown Lengthening is one of my favorite procedures because it’s one of the only surgeries that gives the patient instant gratification (and a boost in self-esteem!) 😁
This patient is a 13 year old who just finished braces but never smiled 😕 As you can see, her gum tissue is very bulky and her teeth appear short and square. Her natural teeth are normal in size but were just hiding below the surface! 👻
We removed the excess gum tissue and recontoured the underlying bone to give her an immediate transformation 💫 I released her labial frenulum a week later and the final photo is 3 weeks post-op 😍
There are still a few tweaks I want to make but she is happy and smiling! 🥳
