Abstract
The aim of this case report was to describe the surgical sequence of crown lengthening. Many different causes can be responsible for short clinical crown. In our case, the gingival overgrowth is the case that producing shortness of upper anterior crowns. According to the American Academy of Periodontology in 2003 (Practice Profile Survey), crown lengthening is the most habitual surgical periodontal treatment.
