Synopsis Subgingival caries and tooth fractures are common occurrences in clinical practice. They typically lead to difficulties in managing the restorative finish line and to inability to take proper impressions. In other situations, dentists face difficulties obtaining adequate crown retention and a ferrule effect. These can lead to secondary caries, repeated fractures and periodontal complications due to biologic width impingement. This course is designed to assist clinicians with managing these challenges and explores the periodontal-restorative interface. Participants will learn about functional crown lengthening and its indications prior to restorative treatment. Surgical techniques and how to improve restorative results by incorporating periodontal principles will be reviewed. The handson portion will enable participants to practice surgical crown lengthening, including effective flap design and suturing techniques. Topics To Be Covered Indications and contraindications Difference between functional and esthetic crown lengthening The importance of the biologic width What are the restorative considerations relevant to crown lengthening surgery? When to save a tooth and when to extract? Step-by-step surgical technique The surgical kit and procedure set-up Complications management When to refer to a periodontist University of Southern California Herman Ostrow School of Dentistry is an ADA CERP Recognized Provider.
