Dental History:
While the alignment of this person's teeth is fairly even and regular, the unevenness of the biting edges of her teeth creates a somewhat ragged appearance. Cosmetic Dentistry Treatment Plan: It seems likely that the results we've illustrated for the upper teeth in our "after" picture could be achieved via the placement of dental crowns, or possibly even dental veneers. The dentist performing the work would be the one who would need to make the determination about which of these two types of dental restorations would be the most appropriate. The decision would most likely hinge on factors related to this patient's occlusion (bite). ( What is the difference between porcelain veneers and dental crowns? ) The changes we have shown for the bottom teeth could most likely be made by just buffing them down slightly with a dental drill. |
