Brief Summary

In patients with excessive gingival display, esthetic crown lengthening procedure by means of scalpel, diode laser or electro-surgery could result in the same gingival marginal stability at 3 and 6 months follow up.

Eligibility Criteria

Age25 Years - 45 Years
Sexall(Gender-based eligibility)
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

  • \].
  • Gingival margin located coronal to the tooth cervical convexity and \>2 mm of gingival band display during maximum smile.
  • Patients with treated periodontal disease (i.e., stage I of periodontitis);

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients with systemic contraindications for oral surgery as uncontrolled diabetes.
