Since modern dentistry largely relies upon adhesive techniques with hydrophobic materials, these require a clean and dry working area. One solution is to place the preparation margin supragingivally. This can be done in three ways: a local build-up using a direct composite restoration, a surgical clinical crown lengthening or an extrusion (orthodontic or surgical). Since in practice only a small part is usually located subgingivally, placing a direct composite restoration is often sufficient.

Crown lengthening is a periodontal surgical technique to obtain extra supra crestal clinical crown length. The question is, what is the long-term prognosis of teeth after surgical crown lengthening. To answer this question, a review of the literature was carried out looking for clinical studies examining survival. Four studies with a follow-up of at least 5 years were included.
