Abstract
Unlabelled:
The surgical crown lengthening procedures are usually used to facilitate the restoration of teeth with poor retentive properties. These techniques can also be applied to the management of aesthetic gingival problems.
Clinical Relevance:
It is important that the need for crown lengthening procedures is evaluated before any complex restorative treatments are carried out.
