Properly diagnosing the need for a crown-lengthening procedure is of paramount importance, as is understanding the differences between esthetic crown lengthening and functional crown lengthening on a posterior tooth. This hands-on experience using pig jaws will show you a step-by-step procedure to crown-lengthen teeth in both the anterior and the posterior regions of the mouth. Surgical, bone recontouring and suturing techniques will be demonstrated for and performed by each participant.
