Crown Lengthening

At Parkview Dental Care, our experienced team offers crown lengthening to help enhance the appearance and functionality of your smile.

Crown lengthening is typically recommended when there isn’t enough visible tooth surface, allowing us to extend the tooth’s surface for a more balanced smile, especially when preparing for crowns or veneers.

Crown lengthening is also effective for patients with a “gummy smile,” where more gum is visible than usual, making the teeth appear shorter. This procedure helps reveal more of your natural teeth, improving the overall look of your smile.

What is the treatment like?

Crown lengthening is a relatively quick procedure that is often completed in one visit. Before the treatment, we’ll take an X-ray and administer a local anaesthetic to ensure you are comfortable throughout the process. The procedure typically involves reshaping and contouring the gum tissue to expose more of the tooth’s surface. In some cases, we may need to trim a small amount of bone to achieve the desired result.

How should I care for the area after treatment?

The healing process is usually quick, with most patients recovering within a few days. To ensure proper healing, we recommend the following aftercare:

Avoid hot foods, beverages, and particularly spicy, chewy, or hard-to-eat foods for the first 72 hours.
Refrain from flossing until the area is fully healed.
If needed, take over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen or paracetamol to manage any discomfort.

Our team at Parkview Dental Care will guide you through every step of the process to ensure your recovery is smooth and your results are beautiful.

I recently visited the dental clinic and had a very positive experience. The reception team was outstanding, professional, and very helpful from the moment I arrived. The overall staff provided excellent service, making me feel comfortable and well cared for throughout my visit.Highly recommended! 🙂

I had a check up appointment today and the doctor explained every bed habits of mine with my teeth. The assistant was very friendly and easy going. Keep up a good work little team. Good news no fillings needed. X

I have had a lovely experience here. The staff is friendly and well organised. I would like to recognise the incredible work the nurses do here. They are very well trained and put in a lot of effort to put you at ease and to make you comfortable. The dentists are experienced and very skilled as well. I am looking forward to my followup appointment for a implant in March. Thank you for making me feel comfortable as I find dental treatments very stressful.

What can I say, the dental practice was a delight. Awesome service and Mya my dental nurse at the appointment was so supportive to the dentist and attentive to me in the chair. I definitely recommend this as your number 1 dental practice in the area and I will be coming back :)

I had an amazing experience at this dental care practice from start to finish. The clinic is clean, modern, and super welcoming, and the whole team made me feel comfortable right away. I especially want to shout out Nurse Mya, who went above and beyond. She was incredibly kind, patient, and professional, explained everything clearly, and made what could’ve been a stressful visit feel easy and calm. Her attention to detail and genuinely caring attitude really stood out and made a huge difference in my experience. You can tell she truly cares about patients and takes pride in her work. This practice is lucky to have her—Mya is an absolute star and 100% deserves recognition. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for top-tier dental care!

Hands down the best service I’ve ever received at a dental practice. From the moment I walked in, the team made me feel completely at ease, and everything was handled with so much care and professionalism.A huge shout‑out to Mya, the dental nurse — she was absolutely amazing. Friendly, reassuring, and incredibly attentive throughout the whole appointment. She genuinely made the experience comfortable and stress‑free. You can really tell she cares about her patients.Couldn’t recommend them enough! Will definitely be coming

Both Cici and her assistant are always so friendly and cheerful. My teeth look amazing after the jet polish and the fillings were done so well that i can't see where they've been done and also now now sensitivity. Thank you ladies.

I had to book an emergency appointment today because of an abscess (on a friday, so was really worried about not being able to see anyone until monday) and since my usual dentist couldn’t fit me in, I tried Parkview who booked me in straight away under the nhs, treated me, prescribed antibiotics and booked me in for a follow up. Everyone was really efficient, polite and friendly, I am a nervous patient and the atmosphere is very calming overlooking the park. I had such a great experience that now I will be switching dentist! Thank you so much

Dr Dev is so kind, professional and skilled. He is the best dentist/implant dentist I have ever had and I’m over 60 yrs old. He deserves more than 5 stars. I can now enjoy Christmas dinner without pain. Thank you so much Dr Dev.

I have recently been coming with my father to Park View Dental Practice. All the staff are so helpful and Cici who saw my father was amazing. She made sure he was ok going up the stairs. I would fully recommend them.I came back today with my father for a filling, after yesterday’s check up. I have never been to such a wonderful dental practice. Everyone is so welcoming and friendly. Cici who my father saw is so lovely and gentle and takes time to explain everything and checks if you have any questions. I am honestly so impressed. Thank you Cici for your wonderful care and to all your team.

Lee Clarke

First time I’ve had Cici and she was fantastic! She was doing a temporary repair for me and explained what her proposed fix was (with a diagram) told me the likelihood of success and gave me time to ask questions. She then did the fix, and checked if I had any more questions. I’m not a nervous patient but if I was I think I would be really reassured by her approach. Treating someone that quickly but giving them time to think and ask questions is a real skill.

Excellent service, knowledgeable and professional specialist who gave me advice I wish I'd had years ago. Provide excellent treatment which has stabilised my periodontal problems. Always polite and considerate of nervous patients. I would definitely recommend this practice.

Anna has been totally amazing with myself and my 9 year old son. He had a bad experience when he was younger. But the dentist has calmed him and built his confidence up. She is super friendly and would recommend her to anyone .

Dr Anha is great, she always friendly welcomes me with a smile which is lovely. She was amazing when it came to creating and implementing my most recent dental plan and all her help made the whole process easy.

It’s been my 2nd time coming to the dentist here. Anha has been so friendly and nice to talk to. My teeth always look so much better when I leave. Would definitely recommend to anyone!

I previously had a disappointing experience at the surgery, but I really appreciate how the team followed up with me afterwards. They were responsive, and took my concerns seriously. I appreciate their willingness to engage and address the issue in a professional manner, which restore my confidence.

I am lucky enough to have Ci Ci as my dentist. I am a very anxious client but as soon as I see her I become more comfortable. Unfortunately due to not being able to find a dentist for 6years because of disabilities and also a shortage I was very lucky to have received a phone call to offer me a an appointment. I had to have a tooth removed but Ci Ci kept talking to me about what she was going to do and was very patient with me. I had no need to worry though as I didn’t feel a thing!!! I look forward to seeing her in 6 months time! If you are at all concerned about visiting a dentist I would highly recommend Ci Ci and Park View!

I visited this dental clinic for a teeth whitening treatment with Dr. Cici. She was incredibly professional and patient, taking the time to explain how to properly care for my teeth. What touched me the most was that even during her time off on holiday, she still responded to my questions. Dr. Cici is someone I wholeheartedly recommend — she’s extremely responsible and, without a doubt, the best doctor I’ve ever met. When I next visit London, I’ll definitely consider getting Invisalign treatment with her.

Was seen by Nicole today and I can't recommend her highly enough.she fitted a crown and did a filling, and throughout she was so friendly and polite. She kept me informed throughout the procedure. An excellent experience.

Jessie Williams

Went to see dentist CiCi for some fillings and jet polish and so very happy with the result! Completely painless and didn’t even need local anaesthetic injections because she was so gentle. Gave me lots of breaks because I have TMJ, so my jaw gets sore after being open for a while, and didn’t rush at all - I felt like she gave me the time I needed and am so glad I have found her. She has also been doing check ups for my 1 year old and was so great with him too! And her dental nurse was very kind letting him watch cartoons on the computer whilst I was having my check up done, so we could all get through the appointment as calmly as possible. So glad I’ve found them both and happy they are now our family dentist!

I am a regular patient at Parkview and visited yesterday for my routine hygienist appointment. As always, the two girls on reception were friendly and helpful, despite being constantly busy.I saw a new (to me) hygienist and her dental assistant, both very friendly. She was so thorough and gave me the best hygienist treatment that I’ve ever had. I love my new shiny teeth and just wanted to say a massive thank you to all at Parkview. Just hope this hygienist is still there for my next hygienist appointment 🤞👏

Saw Dr Cici for an emergency appointment a few weeks ago and again today for a quick check. I was in a lot of pain and already anxious at the dentist, but she was so nice and explained what she was doing thoroughly, and was so easy to talk to! Despite my fear of the dentist, I have already booked in a 6 month check and don't feel so anxious about it now!So grateful that I was seen so quickly and given the all clear today thanks to Dr Cici's treatment! 🙏

Whilst waiting for the dentist to call me, I fell ill suddenly (due to an ongoing health issue).I would like to say a huge thank you to the staff. They cared for me while I was unconscious and never left my side. Wonderful, Caring & Professional staff, many many thanks to you all.

The reception staff are very hospitable and welcoming. My dentist and nurse are always jolly and willing to detail the work, if needed, to be carried out. As most people, I am wary of the possible discomfort that can happen during a visit to a dentist but I have always been pleasantly surprised by the whole experience at Parkview Dental in Letchworth.
