Functional crown lengthening is a simple surgical procedure where the position of the gum around a tooth is adjusted to expose more of the tooth structure. If a tooth is decayed, broken below the gum line, or has insufficient tooth height; there might not be enough tooth structure available to accommodate restoration procedures, such as a crown or bridge.
