Altering Gums & Teeth—Porcelain Veneer Smile Make-Over
A pleasant smile has to have symmetry of the upper teeth's gums against the upper lip and their cutting tooth edges against the lower lip. For this person, both ends of his upper front teeth were out of symmetry, the gums were not symmetrical with the upper lip and the cutting edges did not flow with the lower lip.
Only the front four teeth were treated with porcelain veneers for this stunning result. The old delaminating bonding was removed, followed by general whitening. The gums were repositioned towards his nose to make his cuspids and central incisors longer. Finally, four custom porcelain veneers were placed on his four upper front central teeth.
This took careful planning and timing with our periodontist to get this smile and life enhancing result!
