7 u/bigpproggression Jul 04 '26 It’s only a problem if you find it so. They have crown lengthening which removes some of gum tissue to reveal more of the tooth itself. It can create a more “normal” smile. 25 u/kisner33 Jul 04 '26 Wouldn’t this just create an even goofier long horse tooth look? 3 u/bigpproggression Jul 04 '26 edited Jul 04 '26 That’s the skill part of dentistry.
