Soft Tissue Crown Lengthening Methods. Laser Crown Lengthening. Evaluation and Comparison of Gingivectomy with Different Surgical Instruments

      Аннотация: Soft tissue crown lengthening is a procedure often performed in everyday clinical practice. It aims mainly at reducing the periodontal pocket height and exposing a larger gingivo-incisal length of the clinical crown prior to prosthetic restorations. The devices used in performing the procedure can be divided into two main groups: conventional and contemporary (different types of surgical lasers). This book compares the advantages and disadvantages of the different means for gingivectomy.
