Pre Prosthetic Crown Lengthening
Clinical crown lengthening procedures (CCLP) are used to enhance aesthetics
and/or provide adequate tooth structure for placement and retention
of a restoration while respecting the attachment apparatus.
When restoration margins extend beyond the biologic width,
inflammation and anatomic changes can develop.
Anterior Pre- Prosthetic Crown Lengthening are indicated to increase the labial exposure of the clinical crown
and/or the sound tooth structure coronal to the bone crest.
Preservation of the interproximal papillae is mandatory to obtain desirable final results in the aesthetic region.
