Summary

Setting the restorative margins for teeth with short clinical crowns is challenging and crown lengthening surgery (CLS) is often necessary. The aim of this study was to assess the influence of prosthetic restorative treatment timing on gingival margin location of teeth after crown lengthening surgery.

Eighteen patients requiring CLS were enrolled in the study and divided into two groups depending on the timing of prosthetic rehabilitation, at 6 or fourteen weeks after CLS.Clinical parameters were recorded around treated and neighboring teeth with adjacent and non-adjacent sites at 6 and 14 weeks after surgery as well as three and six months after prosthesis delivery. Alveolar ridge changes were assessed via digital X-rays.Soft tissue healing and the final treatment outcome were assessed by both patients and prosthodontists.
