Crown lengthening procedure in accordance with biological peculiarities of dental tissues

Procedures for clinical extension of crowns are becoming more common and requested in modern dentistry as a result of increased aesthetic requirements, with the aim of maximally improving the created smile. Although the functional characteristics depend of biological ones are imperative, the aesthetic requirements, as an important segment of the dental work, require a precise diagnosis of the relationship between the soft and hard dental tissues, in order to make the definitive restorative parameters as satisfactory as possible.

That is why a clinically relevant plan for the assessment of "red-white" aesthetics and a surgical protocol for obtaining appropriate relations is of exceptional importance for achieving successful results. The purpose of this presentation is to outline the classification and treatment planning protocol for aesthetic crown lengthening procedures, as well as to explain the biological structures involved.
